A machine cuts a strip of carpet into two pieces. The length of the smaller piece is 5 meters greater than 1/4 the length of the
larger piece. If the length of the smaller piece is 12 meters, the length of the bigger piece is meters and the total length of the carpet is meters.
1 answer:
Answer:
longer = 28 meters
Total = 40 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller piece be s,
and the longer piece be b
s = ¼b + 5
s = 12
¼b + 5 = 12
¼b = 7
b = 28 m
Total length = 28+12 = 40 meters
