12 feet long

 1st piece = x

2nd piece = 2x-3

3x-3 =12

3x=15

x = 5

 1st piece = 5 feet

 2nd piece = 2*5=10-3=7 feet

Find the value of x. X+16 3x-1 6x 5x. It is like a trapezoid on the outside to the left it is x+16 on the bottom right 6x on the
likoan [24]

Answer:

The value of x is 23.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

Form the given figure it is clear that (x+16)^{\circ},(3x-1)^{\circ},6x^{\circ},5x^{\circ}

The sum of all exterior angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.

(x+16)+(3x-1)+6x+5x=360

On combining like terms we get

15x+15=360

15x=360-15

15x=345

Divide both sides by 15.

x=23

Therefore, the value of x is 23.

The Target heart rate for fit person of age a exercising at p percent of his or her heart rate is determined by the expression 1
natita [175]

Answer: 9p - 1.5a

Step-by-step explanation:

Your maximum heart rate is about 220 minus your age. But it varies base on age category.

Target heart rate during moderate intensity activities is about 50-70% of maximum heart rate.

According to the question;

Target heart rate for

women = 1/2p(418-4a)

= 209p - 2a ....... (1)

men = 1/2p(400-a)

= 200p - 0.5a .......(2)

To find the difference between the target heart rates for a fit woman and a fit man, take equation 1 from equation 2

(209p - 2a) - (200p - 0.5a)

209p - 2a - 200p + 0.5a

9p -1.5a

Using exponents don't understand what's 9 cubed and 20 squared how do I do it in expanded form whett
Naily [24]
Expanded form is when you just write it out.

so 9 cubed becomes:

9×9×9

and 20 squared becomes:

20×20

the exponent tells you how many times to multiply that number by itself. so, whenever it asks for expanded form, you just write the number how ever many times the exponent tells you to and multiply them all.
