Answer:

first piece = 5 m

second piece = 2(5) + 2 = 12 m

third piece = 3(2x + 2) = 6(5) + 6 = 36 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, the length of the actual rope is unknown but it should be given . Let us assume the length of the rope is 53 meters.

The rope is cut into 3 pieces of different length.

first piece = x

second piece = 2x + 2

third piece = 3(2x + 2) = 6x + 6

Since the length of the actual rope is assumed to be 53 meters .The length of the first piece, second piece and third piece can be calculated as follows.

we add the length of the pieces to get the actual length of each piece. Therefore,

x + 2x + 2 + 6x + 6 = 53

collect like terms

9x + 8 = 53

9x = 53 - 8

9x = 45

x = 45/9

x = 5 meters

first piece = 5 m

second piece = 2(5) + 2 = 12 m

third piece = 3(2x + 2) = 6(5) + 6 = 36 m

On a board measuring 1x100, each square is numbered from
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

97

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following conditions :

board measuring 1x100, each square is numbered from 1 to 100

Three colors are used to paint the squares from left to right in the sequence :

one blue, two reds and three green squares in a repeated pattern.

What is the highest numbered square that is painted blue?

The sequence of painting is repeated after :

(1 + 2 + 3) = 6 successive squares

Since the number of squares = 100

Maximum complete repetition possible :

100 / 6 = 16 remainder 4

Hence 16 * 6 = 96 (the highest complete sequence terminates on the square numbered 96)

On the 97th square, another sequence begins which is a blue and the 100th square is painted the first of the 3 green colors.

Hence, the highest numbered square that is painted blue is 97

Does 25/60 and 8/20 form a proportion ?​
notka56 [123]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Change it so that both fractions would have the same denominator. Note that what you do to the denominator, you must also do to the numerator.

Multiply 3 to both the numerator & denominator of 8/20

(8/20)(3/3) = 24/60

24/60 ≠ 25/60 ∴ these 2 fractions are not proportional.
