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.

Answer:

Option (1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given inequality is.

4x + 5 ≥ 13

We will further solve this inequality,

(4x + 5) - 5 ≥ 13 - 5

4x ≥ 8

\frac{4x}{4}\geq \frac{8}{4}

x ≥ 2

Therefore, on a number line solution of x will be all values of x greater than equal to 2.

Which will be represented by and arrow starting with a solid point from x = 2 directing towards numbers greater than 2.

Option (1) will be the answer.
