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

Is this a function?<br> (4,12)<br> (4,15)<br> (5,18)<br> (5,21)<br> (6,24)
cluponka [151]

Answer:

No this is not a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is not a function because some of the x-values repeat, which is not how a function works. For this to be a function, each x-value would have to be different. In this case, the 4 and 5 repeat in the x-values.

In a bag of sweets, 6 are orange and 9 are lime. Jodi chooses a sweet at random, eats it an
Digiron [165]

Answer:\frac{17}{35}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The bag contains 6 orange and 9 lime sweets

For both sweets of the same flavor, Jodi must either choose orange or lime

No. of ways it can be done is ^6C_1\times^5C_1+^9C_1\times^8C_1

The total no of ways of selecting two sweets out of 15 is ^{15}C_1\times^{14}C_1

The probability that both sweets are the same flavor

P=\dfrac{^6C_1\times^5C_1+^9C_1\times^8C_1}{^{15}C_1\times^{14}C_1}=\frac{102}{210}=\frac{51}{105}=\frac{17}{35}
