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

Step-by-step explanation:
Multiplying fractions: multiply numerators and multiply denominators
1. 3/4 X -6/7 = -18/28 = -9/14
2. -2/7 X -3/7 = 6/49
3. 4 because 72/9 is 8. -72/-9 is 8. Two negatives makes a positive when multiplying and dividing.
9: I think it is 48
10: 138
