Answer:

The correct answer is 82

Step-by-step explanation:

1st piece=x

2nd piece=3x+3

3rd piece=4x-8

Combine like terms:

x+3x+4x=8x

3-8= -5

8x-5=175

8x-5+5=175+5

8x=180

x=22.5

1st piece=22.5 in

2nd piece=70.5 in

3rd piece= 82

3rd piece is the biggest, so the correct answer is 82

Find the value of x for which m parallel to n <br> A. 31 <br> B. 33 <br> C. 39 <br> D. 41
olya-2409 [2.1K]
Hello!

We are told that n and m are parallel.
The angle that measures 105 degrees is supplementary with the alternate interior angle of the angle which measures (3x - 18) degrees. Supplementary angles add to equal 180 degrees, so we can make an equation by first finding the measure of the alternate interior angle.

180 - 105 = 75

The alternate interior angle measures 75 degrees, so we can set that equal to 3x - 18 to solve for x since alternate interior angles are congruent.

75 = 3x - 18
93 = 3x
31 = x

Answer:
x = 31

For what values of x is rational expression below undefined x-7/x^2-7x-8
Novay_Z [31]
The values are x = 8 and x = -1.

To find the undefined values, we need to know when the denominator is zero.
To do this, we need to factor it and find the value that would make either factor equal to zero.

If factors to: (x - 8)(x + 1)

Therefore, the undefined values would be at 8 and -1.

Can somebody please help me
tekilochka [14]

To find the volume of a cylinder, the equation used is V = 3.14r^2h

r = 4, and h = 3,  so we input both numbers to get V = 3.14*4^2*3

V = 3.14*4^2*3 = 3.14*16*3 = 3.14*48=150.72

V = 150.7 ft^3
