Answer:

a. True

b. True

c. False

d. False

Step-by-step explanation:

First Table

Length=10 feet, Width=4 feet

Area =10 X 4=40 Square Feet

Second Table

The second table is half as long  as the first table.

Length =0.5 X 10 =5 feet

Area=5 X Width= 5w

The area of the second table is one  fourth the area of the first table.

Area of Second Table =[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] X Area of first table

5w=[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] X 40

5w=10

Width of the Second table, w=2 feet

The following are true.

(a)The width of the second  table is 2 feet.

(b) The area of the second  table is 10 square feet.
