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.

EastWind [94]

Answer:

To find slope intercept, you must use the substitute term for slope, <em>m</em>, and then use the following equation. ↓

(y = mx+b)

Next, you want to use these terms to help you solve for <em>b</em>. ↓

Slope = m\\Points = x, y\\y-intercept = b

Find the lowest common denominator of and . A. (p + 2) B. (p + 5)(p + 3) C. (p + 5)(p + 2)(p + 3) D. (p + 2)2
laiz [17]
The lowest (or least) common denominator also written as LCD is the smallest of all the possible common denominators, where t<span>he </span>denominator<span> is the bottom number in a fraction.
</span>We should find the lowest common denominator of (p+3)/(p^2+7p+10) and <span>(p+5)/(p^2+5p+6). 
</span><span>p^2+7p+10 can be written as a product: (p+5)(p+2)
</span>p^2+5p+6 <span>can be written as a product: (p+3)(p+2)
</span>So, we should find the LCD for (p+5)(p+2) and (p+3)(p+2). The smallest possible number that can be divided with both of them is:<span>(p + 5)(p + 2)(p + 3)
