Answer 1

Given:

a.) Rachel had a sheet of paper that was 2 inches long & the area was 14 inches.

Let's determine the width of the paper.

`\text{ Area = Length x Width}`
`\text{ Width = }\frac{\text{ Area}}{\text{ Length}}\text{ = }\frac{\text{ 14}}{\text{ 2}}`
`\text{ Width = = 7 inches}`

Therefore, the width of the sheet of paper is 7 inches.
