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 ❤

When Javier and his father went to dinner, the bill was $34. If they tipped the waiter 20%, how much did they spend in total?
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Not sure if this is right, but I got $40.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

I first turned 20% into a decimal. (0.20).

Then I multiplied 0.20 and 34 which is 6.8.

I then added 34 since it’s the original cost to 6.8 since that’s the tip amount.

After that, you should get $40.8.

3x/4 +2/3=x/3 find the exact answer to the simplest form
slega [8]
First, we need to get rid of the denominator. to do so, we will simply multiply all terms by 12 (which is the result of 3*4).
(3x/4)(12)+(2/3)(12)=(x/3)(12)
9x + 8 = 4x
then we will separate the variable in one side and solve to get its value
9x-4x = -8
5x = -8
x = -8/5
