HELP! PLEASE! Jackson is building a small rectangular basketball section in his backyard. The length of the section will be 1.25 times the width of the section.
Part A
Create an equation to represent the area of the basketball section, A, in terms of the width, w.
Part B
Jackson decides to make the area of the basketball section 245 square feet. What are the dimensions, in feet, of the basketball section?
SHOW ALL WORK PLEASE

Part A)

Part B) Length: 17.5 feet and Width: 14 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Create an equation to represent the area of the basketball section A, in terms of the width W.

Let

L ----> the length of the  rectangular basketball section

W ---> the width of the  rectangular basketball section

we know that

The area of the rectangular basketball section is equal to

----> equation A

The length of the section will be 1.25 times the width of the section

so

----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

Part B) Jackson decides to make the area of the basketball section 245 square feet. What are the dimensions, in feet, of the basketball section?

we have

so

solve for W

Find the value of L

substitute the value of W in the equation B

therefore

The dimensions are :

Length: 17.5 feet

Width: 14 feet

its a little blurry tbh
