Area = length * width

width = area/length

area = 5 5/8 sq yd = 5.625 sq yd
length = 1 1/2 yd = 1.5 yd

width = area/length = (5.625 sq yd)/(1.5 yd) = 3.75 yd

width = 3.75 yd = 3 3/4 yd

Hello!

We can use the equation to find the area of a rectangle

The equation is l * w = A

l is length
w is width
A is area

Put in the values you know
1 1/2 * w = 5 5/8

Divide both sides by 1 1/2

w = 3 3/4

The answer is 3 3/4 yards

Hope this helps!

Which data set is represented by the modified box plot? Box and whisker plot on a number line from 45 to 115 in increments of 5. The whisker ranges from 76 to 110. The box ranges from 77 to 93 with the vertical bar inside the box at 85. One dot mark above fifty. 78, 50, 76, 110, 93, 95, 77, 82, 88, 90 78, 62, 76, 110, 93, 95, 77, 82, 88, 90 78, 70, 76, 110, 93, 95, 77, 82, 88, 90 76, 62, 76, 110, 93, 95, 77, 76, 76, 90 (WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO CORRECT ANSWER)
Solution 1

Answer:

The data set which is represented by the modified box plot is:

        78, 50, 76, 110, 93, 95, 77, 82, 88, 90

Step-by-step explanation:

b)

78, 62, 76, 110, 93, 95, 77, 82, 88, 90

The data point 50 does not come in the given set.

Hence, this set will not represent a modified box plot.

c)

78, 70, 76, 110, 93, 95, 77, 82, 88, 90  

Again this data set does not contain data point " 50 "

Hence, this set will not represent a modified box plot.

d)

76, 62, 76, 110, 93, 95, 77, 76, 76, 90

Like above two parts.

It does not contain a data point 50.

hence, this option is incorrect.

Hence, the most appropriate option is: Option: a

      78, 50, 76, 110, 93, 95, 77, 82, 88, 90

As this data set best represents the box plot and also contain all the data points.

Solution 2
The answer is A: 78,50,76,110,93,95,77,82,88,90

Question
To finance her community college​ education, Sarah takes out a loan for ​$3700. After a year Sarah decides to pay off the​ interest, which is 5​% of ​$3700. How much will she​ pay?
Solution 1
So, to solve this, we use this equation:
3700 + 0.05(3700)
But, if we want to make it shorter:
1.05(3700)
Now you just multiply(you may want to use a calculator)
1.05(3700) = 3885
She will pay $3885
Question
kirsten has an area of 70 square feet for a flower garden she plants 5 varieties of flowers equally in her garden which ratio shows the square feet per flower type
Solution 1

The Ratio of the square feet to the per flower type is 14 : 1.

What is Ratio?

A Ratio shows the relative size of two or more value.

According to the question,

Area of a flower garden = 70 square feet

Number of flower plants varieties = 5

Formula for Perimeter of square = 4a where 'a' is sides of a square

4(a) = 70

a=70/4

a=15

To find the Ratio of the square feet to the per flower type

70 : 5

14 : 1.

Hence,  the Ratio of the square feet to the per flower type is 14:1
