1st piece is the longest

 2nd piece is 24 7/16 + 12 5/ 16 = 36 3/4 inches long

3rd piece is 24 7/16 inches

 2nd piece is 7/8 as long as first piece so divide the length of the 2nd piece by 7/8

3 3/4 / 7/8 = 42 inches

A) 1st piece is 42" long

 B) now add them all: 42 + 36 3/4 + 24 7/16 = 103 3/16 inches total

C) 103 3/16 inches / 12 = 8.6 feet

8.6 x 4 = 34.4 feet, he has 32 feet so he does not have enough to cut 4 more of each size.

To travel 80 miles, it takes Sue, riding a moped, 2 hours less time than it takes Doreen to travel 60 miles riding a bicycle. Su
andriy [413]

Answer:

Time taken by Doreen is 6 hours and speed is 10 miles per hour.

Time taken by Sue is 4 hours and speed is 20 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of Doreen be x

According to the question  speed of Sue   is = x+10

time  taken By Sue to cover 80 miles = \frac{80}{x+10}

time taken by Doreen to travel 60 miles = \frac{60}{x}

According to question Sue take two hours less than Doreen takes

therefore

\frac{60}{x} - \frac{80}{x+10} =2

\frac{60(x+10)-80x}{x(x+10)} =2

60(x+10) -80x = 2(x(x+10)

60x+600-80x = 2x^2+20x\\

simplifying it ,we get

2x^2+40x-600=0\\

Dividing both sides by 2 ,we get

x^2+20x-300=0\\

solving it for x ,we get

(x+30)(x-10) =0

x =-30 which is not possible

x =10 miles per hour

Speed of Doreen = 10 miles per hour

Speed of Sue = 10+10 = 20 miles per hour

Time taken by Doreen = 60 divided by 10 = 6 hours

Time taken  by Sue = 80 divided by 20 = 4 hours
