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 ❤

A line has a slope of -1/4 and passes through point (-5/4, 1) What is the equation of the line?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
The line of the equation would be y = -1/4x + 11/16.

In order to find that, we'll put the ordered pair and the slope into slope intercept form. Then we can solve for the intercept. 

y = mx + b
1 = -1/4(-5/4) + b
1 = 5/16 + b
11/16 = b

So then we put that in the equation with slope for the final equation.

#4) 1/6
#5) 1/2
#6) 4/15
#7) 8/15
#8) 11/15
#9) 12
#10) 15
#11) 112

Explanation
#4) There is one section marked 5 out of 6 sections.

#5) There are three odd-numbered sections out of 6 sections.

#6) 2 blue were tossed 4 times out of 15 tosses.

#7) 1 blue and 1 pink were tossed 8 ties out of 15 tosses.

#8) All blue was tossed 4 times out of 15; this means that all blue was not tossed 15-4=11 times out of 15.

#9) There are 4 choices for location and 3 choices for transportation; 4(3) = 12.

#10) There are 3 choices for level and 5 choices for character; 3(5) = 15.

#11) Since 30% are rock, 100%-30% = 70% are not rock.  70% = 70/100 = 0.7; 0.7*160 = 112.
