Answer:

Length = 50 feet

Width = 160 feet

Explanation:

I'm assuming the flagpole is not included in this question.

w

=

w

i

d

t

h

l

=

≤

n

>

h

The length compared to the width is:

w

=

l

+

110

<-- equation 1

The formula for perimeter:

P

=

2

w

+

2

l

420

=

2

w

+

2

l

<-- equation 2

Sub the first equation into the second.

420

=

2

(

l

+

110

)

+

2

l

Now you can solve for

l

algebraically.

420

=

2

l

+

220

+

2

l

4

l

=

200

l

=

50

Sub the found length into the first equation to find the length.

w

=

(

50

)

+

110

w

=

160

Therefore the flag is 50 feet long and 160 feet wide.

7/8 = /48 <br> A. 1 <br> B. 6 <br> C. 42 <br> D. 13
Vsevolod [243]
7/8 = x/48

Cross multiply, which is: a/b = c/d ⇒ ad = bc

After cross multiplying, we get:

8x = 7(48)

8x = 336

Divide 8 on both sides

x = 42


Your final answer is B. 42<span>.</span>
