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.

The average of eight numbers is 56. When one of the numbers was left out, the mean decreased to 54. What number was left out?
Alexandra [31]

The number that was left out is 70.

<h3>What is the number that was left out?</h3>

Average is the sum of a set of numbers divided by the total numbers in the data set.

Average = sum of numbers / total numbers

  • Sum of numbers when there are 8 numbers = 56 x 8 = 448
  • Sum of numbers when there are 7 numbers = 54 x 7 = 378
  • Difference = 448 - 378 = 70

Two Parallel lines are cut by a transversal x and a transversal y so that x and y intersect at point Q as shown.
saw5 [17]

Answer:

- Angle 'a' is an alternating exterior angle with one angle in the triangle and therefore congruent to one angle in the triangle formed by lines m, x, and y.

- Angles 'b' and 'c' are vertical angles with the other two angles in the triangle and therefore congruent to two other angles in the triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical angles are angles that are equal to each other but in opposite direction. The angles b and c have vertical angles on the triangle Q while alternate exterior angles are equal angles that lie on different lanes cutting through an axis.

Angles on a plane can be congruent if they are vertical equals or alternating exterior angles.
