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.

When the daughter cells split or divide from the parent cell, it is called cytokinesis. :)
When a line is given in the form
The slope of the line is m. So, in this case, the slope of 
is 1.
Given a slope 
, you find the slope of a perpendicular line 
by imposing
So, if the given line has slope 1, a perpendicular line has slope given by
and thus 
So, we want a line with slope -1 and passing through (12,-1). Using the fomula
we get
Well we set the perimeter to 120 feet.
This means that 2x+2y=120
Now we know the area of a rectangle is xy so we have to solve for both x and y in the perimeter equation.
2x=120-2y
x=60-y
2y=120-2x
y=60-x
Now we plug these values into our area equation A=xy to get:
A=(60-y)(60-x)
