10.) The length of the sides of a rectangular window have the ratio 1.7 to 1. The area of the windows is 2,720 square inches. What are the dimensions of the window?

a.) 40 inches by 36 inches

b.) 40 inches by 65 inches

c.) 40 inches by 34 inches

d.) 40 inches by 68 inches

The problem ask for the dimension of the window if the ration between the two side is 1.7 is to 1 and the window has an area of 2,720 square inches and the side should be in letter D. 40 inches by 68 inches. I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more

Let the width be x and the length = 1.7x

Area = length x width = x * 1.7x = 1.7x^2 = 2,720

x^2 = 2,720 / 1.7 = 1,600

x = sqrt (1,600) = 40

1.7x = 1.7 x 40 = 68

Therefore, the dimensions are 40 inches by 68 inches
