Leo wants to paint a mural that covers a wall with an area of 300 square feet. The height of the wall is 1/3 of its length. What is the length and the height of the wall?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Length = 30

Height = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for the area = height * length. We know that the height of the wall is 1/3 of its length. This gives us another formula which is  [tex]h=\frac{1}{3} l[/tex]

Now substitute this into the formula, while knowing that the area is 300.

So we have 300 = [tex]\frac{1}{3}l * l[/tex]

Solving for l gives us 30 and then substituting it back into the equation

[tex]h = \frac{1}{3} l[/tex], will give us that the height is 10.

Hope this helps
