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
