A 24 inch board is cut into 3 pieces so that the second piece is twice as long as the first and the third is 3 times as long as

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: first piece = 4 in, second piece = 8 in, third piece = 12 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

total length = 24 inches

first piece = x in

second piece = 2x

third piece = 3x

Equation

x + 2x + 3x = 24

6x = 24

x = 24/6

x = 4 length of the first piece

second piece = 2(4) = 8 inches

third piece = 3(4) = 12 inches

ABCD is a parallelogram. If a CDA - 57 then BCD-_?

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

57

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given in the question that length CDA = 57.

Since the shape is a parallelogram, then we know that length AD=BC and AB=CD.

CDA = CD + AD

BCD = BC + CD

Since BC=AD and CD=CD

BCD = BC + CD is the same as CD + AD = CDA

Therefore BCD is the same length as CDA = 57

In other words, CDA is made up of a long side and a short side = 57

BCD is also made up of a long side and a short side, and since the longs sides are equal to each other and the short sides are also equal to each other in a parallelogram, BCD is the same length as CDA = 57.

Hope this helped!

Justine charges $25 to wash a dog. She washed 5 dogs on Saturday and then some more on Sunday. She made $325 for the weekend. Ho

Marrrta [24]

Answer

• A. Equation: 25(5 + x) = 325

,

• B. Answer: 8 dogs

Explanation

Given

• Charge to wash a dog: $25.

• She washed 5 dogs on Saturday and then some more on Sunday.

• She made $325 for the weekend.

Procedure

She charges $25 per wash, she made $325 for the weekend, and we know that on Saturday she washed 5 dogs, but we don't know how many she washed on Sunday. Thus, we have to build an equation in which the number of dogs washed on Sunday is represented by x (as we do not know the real number).

Considering that the total money made has to be equal to the multiplication of the charge times the dogs washed, the equation is:
