Total length of the board = 2.5 meters
                                       =  (2.5 * 100) cm
                                       = 250 cm
Let us assume the length of the first shelf = x
Then
Length of the second shelf = 2x + 18
Length of the third shelf = x - 12
Length of the fourth shelf = x + 4
Now we can easily get the equation as
x + 2x + 18 + x - 12 + x + 4 = 250
5x + 10 = 250
5x = 250 - 10
5x = 240
x = 240/5
  = 48 cm
length of the second shelf = 2x + 18
                                          = 2(48) + 18
                                           = 96 + 18
                                         = 114 cm
So the length of the second shelf is 114 cm.

Suppose that the relation S is defined as follows.S = ( -6,0), (5,-3), (-6,-1), (-8,5)Give the domain and range of S. Write your
Angelina_Jolie [31]

The domain of a relation is all the x - values the relation can take, so:

domain = {-8, -6, 5}

The range, in addition, is all the y - values the relation can take, so:

range = {-3, -1, 0, 5}

You practice playing your guitar every day. You spend 15 minutes practicing chords and the rest of the time practicing a new son
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

<h2>x=(y-105)/7</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the total time taken to practice is given by the expression as

y=7(15+x)

Simplifying the expression we have

y=105+7x

Solving for x (that is making x subject of formula we have)

7x=y-105

Divide both sides by 7 we have

x=(y-105)/7

Therefore the expression is

x=(y-105)/7
