Question 45 A length of pipe that weighs 45 pounds is cut into two pieces. One of the pieces is 3 feet long and weighs 18 pounds
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: 4.5 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Weight of original pipe =45 pounds

Weight of first piece = 18 pounds

Then, Weight of  other piece = 45- 18 =  27 pounds

Length of first piece = 3 feet

Let x be the length of other piece.

As length is directly proportional to weight.

Then, \dfrac{x}{27}=\dfrac{3}{18}

\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{x}{27}=\dfrac{1}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{1}{6}\times27 =4.5

Hence, the he length of the other piece = 4.5 pounds.

Bryan and his son, and Elton and his son all went fishing. Bryan caught as many fish as his son and Elton caught three times as
Annette [7]

Answer:

The answer is explained below

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a word problem, therefore to solve it the statement have to be writing in form of an equation and then solved.

Let the number of fishes caught by Bryan's son be x fishes. Since Bryan caught as many fish as his son, Bryan caught x fishes

Let the number of fishes caught by Elton's son be y fishes. Since Elton caught three times as many fish as his son, Bryan caught 3y fishes

All together, they caught 25 fish

Therefore it can be represented by the equation:

x + x + y + 3y = 25

2x + 4y = 25

2x = 25 - 4y

x = (25 - 4y)/2

The number of fish caught by Bryan is half of the difference between the total fish caught and four times the number of fish caught by Elton son
