Answer:
the width is 360 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the width of the flag is shown below:
Let us assume the width be x
So the length would be x + 340
And, the perimeter is 2,120 ft
So the formula is
Perimeter = 2(length + width)
2,120 = 2(x + 340 + x)
2,120 = 2x + 680 + 2x
2,120 = 4x + 680
4x = 2,120 - 680
x = 360
hence, the width is 360 ft
Answer:
Think of it as a small number and a large number. If the large number is being divided by a small number, of course that would be larger than the small number being divided by the large number.
Answer:X=5/6 Y=8/5
Step-by-step explanation:
-6x +5y=3
+6x
5y=6x+3 (divide each number by 5)
Y=6/5x + 3/5 (Plug that into your x equation)
12x+15 (6/5x + 3/5) =34
(Multiply 15 by the numbers in the brackets you can break it down and do 15•6 divided by 5 )
15•6=90 divided by 5=18x
15•3= 45 divided by 5=9
(Add like variables)
12x+18x=30x
30x+9=34
(Subtract 9 from itself do the same to 34)
9-9= 0
34-9=25
Divide 30 by itself to get x by itself then divide 25 by 30
25 divided by 30= 5/6
X=5/6 (plug that into the y equation)
Y=6/5•5/6+3/5
Multiply 6/5 and 5/6 straight across because this is multiplication you don't need like denominators
6/5•5/6=30/30=1
Y=1+3/5
1/1 + 3/5
Here you need to have like denominators because it is addition so just use 5
5•1=5
5/5+3/5=8/5
Y=8/5
