The question is: write and solve an equation to determine the width 'w' of the flag. the length of an american flag is 1.9 times its width. i need to find the equation and the width of the flag

The length of an American flag is 1.9 times its width. What is the width of the flag ? ( it gave a picture of an American flag with the length of 9.5ft)

Here, we need to find an equation that can be used to solve for the width of the flag

The equation is 1.9w = 9.5 and the width of the flag is 5 ft

let

width of the flag = w

length of the flag = 1.9 × w

= 1.9w

if the length of the flag is 9.5 ft

Then, the equation is

1.9w = 9.5

divide both sides by 1.9

w = 9.5/1.9

= 5

w = 5 ft

answer: the center is the median and/or mean of the data. the spread is the range of the data. and, the shape describes the type of graph. the four ways to describe shape are whether it is symmetric, how many peaks it has, if it is skewed to the left or right, and whether it is uniform. good luck

step-by-step explanation:

i believe it is the square root of 122 because when you turn it on it's side, to where the 5 inches is on the bottom, it looks like it is the same length.
