Answer:

Length of longer length=132 inches

Length of shorter length=33 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine total length of pipe

Total length of pipe=165 inches

Step 2: Derive expression for all the lengths

We can express all these lengths as follows;

L=l1+l2

where;

L=total length

l1=length of longer piece

l2=length of shorter piece

but;

length of longer piece=4×length of shorter piece

replacing;

l1=4l2

replacing;

L=165

l1=4×l2

165=l 2+4 l2

5 l2=165

l2=165/5

l2=33 inches

l1=length of longer length=33×4=132 inches

l2=length of shorter length=33 inches

If an image is to be reflected in the line y = x and the x-axis, does the order of the reflections affect the final image? Expla
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Affects

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider point (2,-1).

1. Reflect it in the line y=x, then the image point will have coordinates (-1,2). Now reflect it in the x-axis, then the image point will have coordinates (-1,-2).

2. Reflect the point (2,-1) in the x-axis. Its image is point (2,1). Reflect this point in the line y=x, then its image will be point (1,2).

Since images in 1st case and 2nd case differ, the order affects the final image.
