The sides of a rectangle are in a ratio of 7 : 4. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 176 ft, what is the area of the rectangle? The area of the rectangle is

1792

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of the rectangle is 7 and 4

7x, 4x

2(7x+4x) = 176

14x + 8x= 176

22x= 176

Divide both sides by the coefficient if x which is 22

x= 176/22

x= 8

7x

= 7(8)

= 56

4x

= 4(8)

= 32

Area of the rectangle

= 56×32

= 1792

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.
