The length of the pieces are 5 foot and 8 foot.

<h3>what is Algebra?</h3>

Algebra is the part of mathematics that helps represent problems or situations in the form of mathematical expressions.

Given:

Total length of board is 13 foot.

let the length of first piece be x

and length of second piece be y

So, x+ y = 13 .......(1)

Now, The length of the shorter piece is 1 ft more than half the length of the longer piece

x = y/2 + 1......(2)

Now, solving (1) and (2) we get

y/2 + 1 + y = 13

3y/2 = 12

y=24/3

y=8

Then x= 13-8

x= 5

Hence, the length of the pieces are 5 foot and 8 foot.

!!!URGENT!!!
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

r = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

So  (r - (-3)) / (-4-2) = -1/2

(r + 3) / -6 = -1/2

2(r + 3)  = 6

2r + 6 = 6

2r = 6 - 6 = 0

r = 0  (answer).
