 The area of the banner is 144 square feet. The width of the banner is 1/4 the length of the banner. What are the dimensions of the banner?


Sagot :

The width is 6 ft. The length is 24 ft!

Answer:

The width is 6 and the length is 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to create an equation using the area, because we know that the width is 1/4 of the length we can use x for both values:

[tex]x(4x)=144[/tex]

[tex]4x^{2} =144[/tex]

[tex]x^{2} =36\\[/tex]

[tex]x=6\\[/tex]

Then you can use this to find the width and the length.
