A = first piece, b = second piece, c = third piece
a + b + c = 47
b = 3a
c = 5a + 2
a + (3a) + (5a + 2) = 47.....combine like terms
9a + 2 = 47
9a = 47 - 2
9a = 45
a = 45/9
a = 5 ft
b = 3a.....b = 3(5)....b = 15 ft
c = 5a + 2....c = 5(5) + 2.....c = 25 + 2....c = 27 ft
longest piece (c) = 27 ft
Answer:
alright so you got 2 points! now this is the slope formula! y2-y1/x2-x1
okay let's label your points! (x1 0,y1 -3) (x2 2,y2 1)
let's follow the formula this makes it so we can solve! 1--3/2-0
I understand you may get a decimal but don't use 2.5 use a fraction because teachers seem to like fractions and general decimals can be hard to use (experience lol) 2.5 is 5/2 so this means your slope is 5/2
this formula works every single time and if you memorize it you can do any other problems with 2 points! please memorize y2-y1/x2-x1
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The scale factor (C) is the ratio of corresponding parts of the two pyramids.
The ratio of the areas is the square of the scale factor.
