Let smallest piece weigh x pounds  then 
x + 2x + 4x + 8x  = 10

15x = 10
x = 2/3 

so  weights of the pieces in ascending order is  2/3 , 4/3, 8/3 and 16/3  pounds

or as mixed numbers  2/3,  1 1/3 , 2 2/3 and 5 1/3  pounds

What are the solution(s) of –x2 + 2x + 3 = x2 – 2x + 3?
Leviafan [203]
-x^2+2x+3=x^2-2x+3  add x^2 to both sides

2x+3=2x^2-2x+3  subtract 2x from both sides

3=2x^2-4x+3  subtract 3 from both sides

2x^2-4x=0  factor

2x(x-2)=0

So x=0 and 2
