The length of the shorter wire is 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the 27 cm wire is cut into two pieces of length x cm and so the longer part would be x+3 cm.

Now we know that the total length of the wire is 27cm so

x+(x+3) = 27

2x+3 = 27

2x = 27-3

2x = 24

x = 12 cm

If h (x) = -5x-7 then what is h (x-1) ?
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

h(x - 1) = -5x - 2

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Distributive Property

<u>Algebra I</u>

Terms/Coefficients

Functions

  • Function Notation

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify</em>

h(x) = -5x - 7

<u>Step 2: Find</u>

  1. Substitute in <em>x </em>[Function h(x)]:                                                                          h(x - 1) = -5(x - 1) - 7
  2. [Distributive Property] Distribute -5:                                                                h(x - 1) = -5x + 5 - 7
  3. Combine like terms:                                                                                         h(x - 1) = -5x - 2
