Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 1st part of your answer be x , so the 2nd part will be 40-x . From the given information, we can write the equation: (1/4)x = (3/8) × (40-x) . We can simplify this into (1/4)x = (120-3x)/8 ; 8x = 480-12x ; 8x+12x = 480 ; 20x = 480 ; x = 480/20; x = 24

Therefore, the 1st part = 24

Plug this into your 40-x equation to get: 40 - 24 = 16

valentinak56 [21]

1st piece = x

2nd piece = x+2

3rd piece = x+2+3 = x+5

37 = x +x+2 + x+5 =

37 = 3x+7

30=3x

x = 30/3 = 10

 1st piece = 10 inches

 2nd piece = 10+2 = 12 inches

HELP! WILL GIVE BRANLIEST!
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

z = 119                            Vertically opposite angles are equal.

5x + 41 + 119 = 180        5x + 41  and 119 are supplementary.

4x + 160 = 180               Subtract 160 from both sides

4x = 180 - 160

4x = 20                           Divide by 4

x = 20/4

x = 5
