Answer:

16 and 24 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If we call the length of one piece x, the length of the other piece is x + 8, therefore, we can write the following equation:

x + x + 8 = 40

2x + 8 = 40

2x = 32

x = 16 so x + 8 = 16 + 8 = 24.

sashaice [31]

Answer:

x is less than or equal to 0

Step-by-step explanation:
