Solve this problem in your notebook using all four steps. A board 60 in. long is cut into two parts so that the longer piece is
5 times the shorter. What are the lengths of the two pieces?
1 answer:
X = shorter piece
y = longer piece = 5x
shorter piece + longer piece = 60
x + 5x = 60
6x = 60
x = 60/6
x = 10 in. <== shorter piece
y = 5x
y = 5(10)
y = 50 in. <== longer piece

Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2=5^2+12^2
x^2=25+144
x^2=169
x=13
C. the values can be added after making a conversion of units because they both measure length.
P = 77.
side (S1, S2) = 2(B) - 4.
P = S1 + S2 + B.
77 = (2B - 4) + (2B - 4) + B.
77 = 2B - 4 +2B - 4 + B.
77 = 5B - 8.
77 + 8 = 5B.
85 = 5B
B = 85/5
B=17 ft
