Second one because it don’t talk about minus when it talks about the three
Answer: shorter: 24 longer: 41
Step-by-step explanation: we need to write an equation. x+(2x-7)=65. We don’t need the parentheses, but I put them so it would make it a bit more clear. Simplify: 3x-7=65. Add 7 to both sides: 3x=72. Divide by three: 72/3=24 Now we know the shorter piece is 24. 24x2-7=48-7=41. We know these are correct because 24+41=65
Answer:
B 9

Use the rule of exponents for a division. To divide two powers with the same base, write the same base and subtract the exponents.
Now do it with your numbers.
Answer: B 9
2x = 15 - 3x -- add 3x to both sides
5x = 15 -- divide both sides by 5
x = 3 -- simplest form
