First, convert 4 feet into inches - 48 inches. Then, divide 48 by 14 to get 3.43, so he can have 3 14-inch long pieces. To get the left over out of a foot, take 14 x 3 to get 42, then subtract 42 from your original 48 inches to get 6 inches left, which is half of a foot.

x = 8
Solution:
Side-splitter theorem:
<em>If a line is parallel to one side of a triangle and the line intersects the other two sides, then this line divides those two sides proportionally.</em>
Do cross multiplication, we get
⇒ 4 × 42 = 21x
Divide by 21 on both sides, we get
⇒ 4 × 2 = x
⇒ 8 = x
Switch the sides.
⇒ x = 8
The value of x is 8.
Complete question is;
An architect plans to build an extension to meiling's rectangular deck. Let x represent the increase, in meters, of her deck's length. The expression 4(x+8) represents the area of the deck, where 4 is the width, in meters, and (x+8) represents the extended length, in meters. Use distributive property to write an expression that represents the total area of meilings new deck.
Answer:
4x + 32
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that the expression 4(x+8) represents the area of the deck.
Also, that 4 is the width, in meters, and (x+8) represents the extended length, in meters.
Thus, area is;
A = 4(x+8)
Using distributive property simply means we will distribute the term outside the bracket to each term inside the bracket.
Thus;
A = (4 * x) + (4 × 8)
A = 4x + 32
Answer:
360
Step-by-step explanation:
f varies directly as g
f = kg where k is the constant of variation
f varies inversely as h
f = kg/h
We know g = 198 when h = –11 and f = –6. Substituting in
-6 = k*198/(-11)
-6 =k*(-18)
Dividing each side by -18
-6/-18 = k*-18/-18
1/3 =k
Our equation is
f = 1/3 g/h
Letting f = 12 and h = 10
12 = 1/3 g/10
Multiply each side by 10
12*10 =1/3 g/10*10
120 = 1/3 g
Multiply each side by 3
120*3 =1/3 g *3
360 =g
