Answer:
10 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
If x is the length of the longer piece, and y is the length of the shorter piece, then:
x + y = 16
x = y + 4
Substitute:
x + (x − 4) = 16
2x − 4 = 16
2x = 20
x = 10
The longer piece will be 10 feet long.
net amount $885.98 tax at 8.5% is $75.31 gross amount is $961.29
Quotient = 18
Remainder = 10
1234/68
=> 68 x 1 = 68
=> 123 - 68 = 55
=> Take the 4 down
=> 554/68
=> 68 x 8 = 544
=> 554 - 544 = 10
So, the quotient = 18.
use a chart to solve the question
9/4 or 2& 1/4 or 2.25
4x-7=2
4x=9
/4
x= 9/4 or 2.25
