Answer:

The length of the shorter piece = 3 ft

The length of the longer piece = 10 ft  

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question;

  • Total length of the string is 13 ft
  • Longer piece is 4ft longer than twice the shorter piece;

Therefore;

  • Assuming the shorter piece is x ft
  • Then, the longer piece will be (2x + 4) ft

Thus;

Longer piece + shorter piece = 13 ft

x ft + (2x + 4) ft = 13 ft

3x + 4 = 13

3x = 9

 x = 3 ft  and

2x + 4 = 10 ft

Therefore;

The length of the shorter piece = 3 ft

The length of the longer piece = 10 ft

What is the area of this figure?
dem82 [27]

Answer:

I feel like a lot of people try to get people just to do the work for them on this site.

Step-by-step explanation:

To actually find the area of this shape without using a too high level of math, you would split the shapes into geometric shapes and you should find that you have all the values to make that line up. Just remember to be careful. This will take a moment which is why i'm not doing it. Remember area = b*h area of triangle = 1/2*b*h
