Question

Linear Equations and InequalitiesSubstitute the given values into the formula and solve for the remaining variable.A = lw; if A = 44 when l = 16, find w.

Answer 1

We have the equation:

`A=lw`

and we know that A=44 when l=16; plugging this values and solving fir w we have that:

`\begin{gathered} 44=16w \\ w=(44)/(16) \\ w=(11)/(4) \\ w=2.75 \end{gathered}`

Therefore w=11/4 (this is the same as 2.75)
