Answer:

<h2>                first piece:    5 in</h2><h2>           second piece:   10 in</h2><h2>               third piece:   32 in  </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

x   - the length of the <u>first piec</u>e

2x    - twice the length of the first piece (the length of the <u>second piece</u>)

6x   - six times the  length of the first piece

two inches more:

6x+2    - the length of the <u>third piec</u>e

first + second + third = 47 in  {total length of the pieces of steel}

x + 2x + 6x + 2 = 47

9x + 2 = 47

9x = 45

x = 45:9

x = 5 in

first piece:   5 in

second piece: 2×5 = 10 in

third piece:   6×5 + 2 = 30 + 2 = 32 in

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

The solution h < 5.5 means that Melanie can rent the bike for no more than 5.5 hours.

<u>Hope this helps :)</u>

<u>Explanation and Check part below.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Isolate the variable by doing the inverse operation which is in this case subtracting 6 on bothsides of the equation.

8h + 6 < 50

- 6 - 6

8h < 44

2. Dive both sides of the equation by 8.

8h < 44

--- ----- <--------- fraction bar, divide

8 8

h < 5.5

How can you use the sign of the points to determine location? please help and i will give brainliest :D
Vladimir [108]

To determine the location of a point on a graph, the first number of the ordered pair is a x-coordinate which means the first number you would look for would be the horizontal line, or the x-axis. The second number is the y-coordinate which means that you would look on the vertical line, or the y-axis. You would go on the horizontal line first, then from there go up to the y-coordinate and place your point. (I'm sorry if it's long but you can try to shorten it.)

Hope this helped!

Have a nice day!
