Item 15 Question 1 Write and solve an equation to answer the question. The perimeter of the Norwegian flag is 190 inches. What are the dimensions of the flag? Equation: =190 y= Question 2 Label the dimensions of the flag in inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question lacks the required diagram. Find the diagram in the attachment.

The flag is rectangular in nature and the formula for calculating the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2(L+W) where;

L is the length of the flag

W is the width of the flag

From the diagram, L = y and W = 11y/8

Since the perimeter = 190 inches, we will substitute the given parameters into the formula and firs calculate the value of y.

190 = 2(y+11y/8)

190 = 2y + 11y/4

multiply through by 4

760 = 8y+11y

760 = 19y

y = 760/19

y = 40

The length of the flag is 40 inches and the Width of the flag is 11(40)/8 = 55inches.

Hence, the dimensions of the flag in inches is 40 inches by 55 inches.
