Hello thee i hope you are having good day :) Your Question: 15-foot piece of string is cut into two pieces so that the longer piece is 3 feet longer than twice the shorter piece. If the shorter piece is x feet long, find the lengths of both pieces.

so firstly you would do L = 3 + 2x S = x X + (3 + 2x) = 15 X + 3 + 2x = 15

3x + 3 = 15 then you would take away that 3x = 15 - 3 this would equal 12 so x = 4 and then add it 3+ 2x = 3+2 (4) = 3 + 8 = 11 Short piece is 4 feet Long piece is 11 feet.

Hopefully that helps you ❤

Answer:

20% of 45 is 9,

Step-by-step explanation:

So the answer must be 9 for an example 50% of 18 is 9 because to find 50% of something simply divide by 2 .10% of 90 is 9 because to find 10% of something divide by 10. 25% of 36 is 9 because you divide by 4 to get 25% of anything.

Find the length of side BY for the given triangle.

saul85 [17]

Answer:

option 3- 5 square root 2

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sin 45° = \frac{BY}{OY} \\ \\ \frac{1}{ \sqrt{2} } = \frac{BY}{10} \\ \\ BY = \frac{10}{ \sqrt{2} } \\ \\ BY = \frac{10 \times \sqrt{2} }{ \sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{2} } \\ \\ BY = \frac{10 \sqrt{2} }{2 } \\ \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{BY = 5 \sqrt{2} }}$
