Answer:

  1. the longer frame (B) has the shorter width

  2. the shorter width is 6 3/7 inches, area divided by length

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between area, length, and width is ...

  A = LW

Then the width is ...

  W = A/L . . . . .  inversely proportional to length

__

1. Since length and width are inversely proportional (when area is constant), the shorter width will be associated with the longer length. Frame B will have the shorter width.

__

2. The width of frame B is ...

  W = A/L = (45 in²)/(7 in) = 45/7 in = 6 3/7 in

10(5 - n) - 1 = 29<br><br> n = ?<br> Help!
nydimaria [60]

n = 2

distribute and simplify left side of equation

50 - 10n - 1 = 29

49 - 10n = 29 ( subtract 49 from both sides )

- 10n = 29 - 49 = - 20

n = \frac{-20}{-10} = 2
