The length of the shorter rope is 20 cm.

<h3>How to find the original length of the rope using ratio?</h3>

He cut a rope into two pieces with lengths having a ratio of 5 to 2.

The shorter piece is 70 cm long.

The length of the original rope can be calculated as follows:

The ratio of the length of the rope is as follows;

5 : 2

let

x = length of the original rope

Therefore,

length of shorter piece = 2 / 7 × 70

length of shorter piece = 2 / 7 × 70

length of shorter piece =  140 / 7

length of shorter piece = 20 cm

Therefore, the length of the shorter rope is 20 cm.

Find the value of X.
andriy [413]

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

All the angles added together must equal 360 degrees.

74+43+50+37+12x+12x+11x+17x = 360

Simplify the equation by adding like numbers.

204+52x=360

Subtract 204 from both sides of the equation.

204+52x-204=360-204

52x=156

Now, divide both sides by 52.

52x/52=156/52

x=3
