X + 3x + 4x = 56
8x = 56
x = 7

The shortest piece is 7 inches
The middle piece is 7*3 = 21 inches.
The longest piece is 4*7 = 28 inches

Check
7 + 21 + 28 = 56 It does check and the lengths are correct.

Solving one-step inequalities by multiplying/dividing<br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=14v%20%5Cleqslant%2014" id="TexFormul
liubo4ka [24]

Answer: v <= 1


Step-by-step explanation:

When you have a variable by a number, you do the opposite of multiplying, so you divide

Since there's only 14v you divide 14 from itself leaving just the variable

14 ÷ 14 = 1

You repeat this and divide on the other side

14 ÷ 14 = 1

Since you arent dividing by a negative on both sides, the arrow stays the same

v <= 1

Hope this helps!
