Answer:
Shorter piece= 4 ft, longer piece= 13 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
If shorter piece is x
Longer pc is 2x + 5
Together they make 17 feet
So x + 2x + 5 = 17
3 x + 5 = 17
3x = 17 - 5 = 12
3x = 12
X = 12/ 3 = 4
So shorter pc is 4 feet
Longer pc is 2 x + 5
= (2 x 4) + 5
= 8 + 5 = 13
Answer:
The air is .6m^3
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a cube is
V = s^3 where s is the side length
The volume of the tank is
V = 1^3 = 1 m^3
The volume of the water is 1 by 1 by .4
V = l*w*h
= 1 *1*.4
= .4 m^3
The difference must be filled by air
1- .4 = .6 m^3
The air is .6m^3
The rate of 8 gallons every 25 hours means that the faucet fills 
gallons every hour.
Multiply the unit rate for the number of hours you're interested in to find
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1 ) 2 + 7t [ there are no like terms , so no further simplifying ]
2) 6r + ( - 16 r )
= 6 r - 16 r [ both are like terms ]
= - 10 r
3) (3x + 2 ) + ( 2x - 4 )
= 3x + 2 + 2x - 4
= 3x + 2x - 4 + 2 [ arranging like terms together ]
= 5x - 2
4) (8 n² - 3 n + 6 ) + ( n - 2 )
= 8n² - 3n + 6 + n - 2
= 8n² - 3n + n + 6 - 2 [ bringing like terms together ]
= 8n² - 2n + 4
