Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Shorter piece= 4 ft, longer piece= 13 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
If shorter piece is x
Longer pc is 2x + 5
Together they make 17 feet
So x + 2x + 5 = 17
3 x + 5 = 17
3x = 17 - 5 = 12
3x = 12
X = 12/ 3 = 4
So shorter pc is 4 feet
Longer pc is 2 x + 5
= (2 x 4) + 5
= 8 + 5 = 13
Answer:
-1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
-2(4x - 3) = 10
First distribute the -2 to 4x and -3; it turns into
-8x + 6 = 10
The subtract 6 on both sides which equals
-8x = 4
Then divide -8 on both sides...
x = -4/8 or -1/2
