If the shorter piece is x feet long, the longer piece is 3x+4 feet long, and the total length is

... x + (3x+4) = 36

... 4x = 32 . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 4

... x = 8

The shorter piece is 8 feet long; the longer piece is 28 feet long.

_____

You can do the math for the longer piece in your head: 36 ft - 8 ft = 28 ft.

What is the measure of angle 4??? please help asap!!!
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
<h3>Answer: 80 degrees</h3>

===========================================================

Explanation:

Angle 3 and the 100 degree angle are corresponding angles. They are both in the southeast quadrant of their four-corner angle configuration. Assuming the lines that look horizontal are parallel, this would mean angle 3 is 100 degrees. Recall that corresponding angles are congruent when we have parallel lines.

Once we know that angle 3 = 100, we will use this to find angle 4.

Angles 3 and 4 add to 180. They form a straight angle or straight line.

(angle3)+(angle4) = 180

(100) + (angle4) = 180

angle4 = 180-100

angle4 = 80 degrees

An equation of the line that passes through (3, 1) and (0, 10).
MrMuchimi

Answer:

So the equation of the line that passes through (3, 1) and (0, 10) is y=-3x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

(3, 1) and (0, 10)

m=y²-y¹/x²-x¹

m=10-1/0-3

m=9/-3

m=-3

y=mx+b

y-y=m(x-x1)

y-1=-3(x-3)

y-1=-3x+9

+1 +1

y=-3x+10
