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.

On a coordinate plane, a triangle has points A prime (1, 2), B prime (3, negative 3), C prime (negative 1, negative 3). Triangle
Volgvan

Answer:

A'(5.5, -4.2), B'(7.5, -9.2), C'(3.5, -3.2)

Step-by-step explanation:

I really do hope I understood you correctly. I figured that the rule would have to be added to each point. If those are wrong, try subtracting the rule.

Again, I'm not trying to take your points and leave you with a wrong answer. I really did give it my best.
