Answer:

Length of the shorter pipe is 0.55 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of one longer pipe = x meters and the length of shorter pipe = y meters

Now we will form the equations to get the length of shorter pipe or value of y.

x = 7y -----(1)

x - 2.2 = 3y ----(2)

Now we put the value of x from equation 1 to 2.

7y - 2.2 = 3y

7y - 3y = 2.2

4y = 2.2

y = 2.2/4 = 0.55 meters

Therefore the length of the shorter pipe is 0.55 meters.

Firlakuza [10]

She would have used 1200 messages in all by the month of August.

Step-by-step explanation:

Messages allowed per month = 150

There will be 8 months starting from January to August, therefore,

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

a³ + b³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(a + b)(a² - ab + b²)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

a(a² - ab + b²) + b(a² - ab + b²) ← distribute both parenthesis

= a³ - a²b + ab² + a²b - ab² + b³ ← collect like terms

= a³ + b³
