Answer:

Length of the longer piece be 105 ft .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Mauro has 140 ft of rope.

He will cut it into two pieces so that the length of the longer piece is 3 times the length of the shorter piece.

Let us assume that the length of the shorter piece be x.

Length of the Longer piece = 3x

Than the equation become

3x + x = 140

4x = 140

x = \frac{140}{4}

x = 35 ft

Length of the longer piece = 3 × 35

                                             = 105 ft

Therefore the length of the longer piece be 105 ft .

Step-by-step explanation:

It's almost easier for you to do this than it is to post a question on Brainly.

All you need to do is type the relevant expressions. Once you have Desmos show you the vertex, writing the x= equation for that is all that is required to draw it.
