Answer:
The length of the first piece = 41 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the first piece = a
Let the length of the second piece = b
Let the length of the third piece = c
we are given the following:
b = 3a . . . . . (1) (The 2nd piece is 3 times as long as the 1st piece)
c = 6 + a . . . . (2) (the 3rd piece is 6 centimeters longer than the 1st piece)
a + b + c = 211 . . . . . (3) ( the yarn has a total length of 211 centimeters)
Next, let us eliminate two variables, and this can easily be done by substituting the values of b and c in equations 1 and 2 into equation 3. this is done as follows:
a + b + c = 211
a + (3a) + (6 + a) = 211 ( remember that b = 3a; c = 6 + a)
a + 3a + 6 + a = 211
5a + 6 = 211
5a = 211 - 6 = 205
5a = 205
∴ a = 205 ÷ 5 = 41 cm
a = 41 cm
Therefore the length of the first piece (a) = 41 cm
now finding b and c
substituting a into equation 1 and 2
b = 3a
b = 3 × 41 = 123
∴ b = 123 cm
c = 6 + a
c = 6 + 41 = 47
∴ c = 47 cm
Answer:
(x-7) (x-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
3x²-33x+84 can be factored into
3 (x-7) (x-4)
Answer:
140 + 10 = 150, so 150 + 140 = 290 students. There are 140 + 10 = 150 students at Westside Middle School.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
550 mm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
A net can be drawn as shown in the first figure attached. Each square represents 5 mm by 5 mm, so is 25 mm^2. Altogether, there are 22 of them, so the total area is ...
(25 mm^2)·22 = 550 mm^2
The second attachment shows that net folded up to make the given figure.
_____
In the first attachment, the green shades represent the left- and right-side faces. (Darker green is left side.) The red and blue shades represent the front- and back-side faces. The white rectangles represent the top and bottom faces. The dark black lines are the cut lines. If you want to fold the figure up, the lighter lines are the fold lines.
The second attachment is just verification that all faces are accounted for and the net actually corresponds to the given figure.
