X + 3x + 4x = 56
8x = 56
x = 7
The shortest piece is 7 inches
The middle piece is 7*3 = 21 inches.
The longest piece is 4*7 = 28 inches
Check
7 + 21 + 28 = 56 It does check and the lengths are correct.
Answer:
yes it does
Step-by-step explanation:
because the equation y=9x does not have a y-intercept (all slopes come in the form y=mx+b -- it can be written differently though) and since there is no 'b' that means the y-intercept is 0. So whenever there is no y-intercept, the slope starts at 0.
Answer:
5/12 of rain came, or 10 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
complete rain be 1
then, =1-(1/4+1/3)
=1-(3+4/12) take lcm
=1-7/12
=12-7/12 again lcm
= 5/12
or
1/4 of 24 inches means 1/4×24= 6 inches
1/3 of 24 inches, then 1/3×24= 8 inches
therefore, rest of the months get
= 24-(6+8)
=24-14
=10 inches
