a) To find the length of the banner, we can use the formula for the area of a rectangle:
Area = Length * Width
Since the area is given as 32 square feet and the width is given as 4 ft, we can rearrange the formula to solve for the length:
Length = Area / Width
Plugging in the given values, we have:
Length = 32 sq ft / 4 ft = 8 ft
So the length of the banner is 8 ft.
b) The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula:
Perimeter = 2 * (Length + Width)
Using the values we have:
Perimeter = 2 * (8 ft + 4 ft) = 2 * 12 ft = 24 ft
So the perimeter of the banner is 24 ft.
