A seed company planted a floral mosaic of a national flag. The perimeter of the flag is 2,120 ft Determine the flag's width and length if the length is 380 ft greater than the width The flag's width is ft.​

the width is 360 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the width of the flag is shown below:

Let us assume the width be x

So the length would be x + 340

And, the perimeter is 2,120 ft

So the formula is

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

2,120 = 2(x + 340 + x)

2,120 = 2x + 680 +  2x

2,120 = 4x + 680

4x = 2,120 - 680

x = 360

hence, the width is 360 ft

step-by-step explanation:

let's cover over the formula of the vertex:

y = a(x – h)^2 + k

in this formula, (h,k) are the vertex, always remember that the positive or negative value of the vertex is based on the sign it has.

for example, if the vertex is -3,-6 then both the x and y value would have the positive sign attached to it and if it were a positive x and y value, then a negative sign would be attached to it.

with that being said, for our problem the x value is a positive one so we are looking for a number with a negative sign next to it, in this case the first and second choice.

however, for the first answer choice it isn't quite part of the formula so we know that the answer choice correctly displays the x value.

to confirm, we can see if the -1 fits correctly with the second answer choice, and as mentioned above a negative number will have a positive sign attached to it. so, for our problem we can see that -1 has been changed to +1, so we can confirm that the second answer choice is correct.

hence, our final answer is y=(x - 1)^2 + 1
