Makayla has two types of ropes. She wants to cut the ropes into pieces of the same length for butterfly knots. One is 84 inches,

the other is 116 inches.
Find the greatest possible length that she can cut for each piece, so that no rope will be left unused.

Remark

If you want every piece you cut equal to the same length, you are talking about the GCF because both ropes have to be cut in such a way that all parts of the whole set of ropes are the same size.

Prime Factors of 84 and 116

84: 2 * 2 * 3 * 7

116: 2 * 2 * 29

The two 2s are all that is common.

So that means that the 84 inch length will give you 21 lengths that are 4 inches long and the 116 inch length will give you 29 lengths that are 4 inches long.

In this problem, we are trying to find the greatest common factor, or the greatest amount that both values share. To find this, we will need to factor our values though prime factorization:

84 = 2^2 \cdot 7^1 \cdot 3^1

116 = 2^2 \cdot 29


We can see that the greatest value that we can find in both numbers is 2^2, or 4, meaning our answer is 4 inches.

When y=2 and y=5

1. 2y-1 and (3y-5+y or 4y-5)
when y=2 ; 2(2)-1 = 3 and 4(2)-5=3
when y=5 ; 2(5)-1 = 9 and 4(5)-5=15

----nonequivalent-----

2.5y+4 and (7y+4-2y or 5y+4)
so you don't have to place any value in because 5y+4 and 7y+4-2y are equal,
whatever you place any value in, it will be all the same then

-----equivalent------

and no need to find more

Please help me with number 2. I already have number 4. And leave a description on how to do it! Thank you!
Aneli [31]

Since your probably solving for W, isolate W by adding the -3n to both sides and get W=5n now use a calculator and multiply 5 and Pi. To Get 15.7.


I used N for pi since I don’t have that symbol

You need to specify what needs to be solved so I just assumed W

Find the length of chord QS <br><br> 1)5<br> 2)33<br> 3)21<br> 4)32
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Length of Chord QS = 33

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Length of Chord QS</u>:

QW X WS = PW = WR

12(4x + 1) = 14(3x + 3)

48x + 12 = 42x + 42

48x - 42x = 42 - 12

6x = 30

x = \frac{30}{6} = 5

∴ Length of Chord QS = 12 + 4(5) + 1 = 13 + 20 = 33

The intersecting chords theorem or just The chord theorem is a statement in elementary geometry that describes a relation of the four line segments created by two intersecting chords within a circle. It states that the products of the lengths of the line segments on each chord are equal.  Each chord is cut into two segments at the point of where they intersect. One chord is cut into two line segments A and B. The other into the segments C and D.  This theorem states that A×B is always equal to C×D no matter where the chords are.
