To answer the question above, let x be the shorter one of the pieces. With the variable, we can express the longer piece as 2x + 3. Based on the given, the sum of the lengths of these pieces should sum up to 14 ft.
2x + 3 + x = 14 ft, x = 3 2/3 ft
Substituting this value for the longer piece, we get 10 1/3 ft. Thus, the lengths of the pieces are 3 2/3 ft and 10 1/3 ft.

A] Given that the last years's sales was $144,600 and this years sales should increase by 1/3. Then:
i] Amount the sales should increased by will be:
(last year's sales)*(increase)
=144,600*(1/3)
=48,200
ii] The sales in the new year will be:
(last year's sales)+(increase)
=144600+48600
=$192, 800
2] Given that the sales of hifi which included 6% tax was 205,000. The actual sales was:
Actual percentage sales=100%
percentage sales after taxation=100-6=94%
thus the actual sales was:
(100)/(94)*205,000
=218, 085.1064
3]Given that the rate per $100 is $0.83, and the insurance was for 90000, the insurance premium will be:
(total insurance) *(unit rate)/(number of units)
plugging the values we obtain:
90000*0.83/100
$747
Answer:
let one even number be N
and another even number be N(N+2)
N(N+2)=360
n^2+2n-360=0
n^2+20n-18n-360=0
value of N= -20 ,18
but -20 not accepted
smaller number 18
Step-by-step explanation:
I’m not 100 percent sure someone can comment on this and confirm but when it’s written like a fraction it means division. If they gave you the meaning of each variable (the letters) multiply each variable by each coefficient (the number next to the variable). Multiply all of those. Then divide it by the product of 4 and the variable
Hope this helped!
