3.24m

the longest piece will be associated with 8 parts of the ratio.

divide 144 by 8 to find 1 part of the ration then multiply this value by 6 and 4 for the remaining parts of the ratio

\frac{144}{8} = 18 cm ← 1 part

6 parts = 6 × 18 = 108 cm

4 parts = 4 × 18 = 72 cm

length = 144 + 108 + 72 = 324 cm = 3.24m

Step-by-step explanation:

  6 :   8 :   4

<u>x18 </u> <u>x18</u>  <u>x18 </u>

108  144   72

108 + 144 + 72 = 324

Find the value of x.
pychu [463]

Knowing that all triangles angles add up to 180*:

24* + x + ? = 180*

Knowing the straight line is 180*:

180* - 122* = 58*

The equation then is:

24* + x + 58* = 180*

Then solve for X:

(82* + x) - 82* = (180*) - 82*

<u>x = 98* or C</u>

Noah is solving an equation, and one of his moves is unacceptable. Here are the moves he made.
faust18 [17]

Answer:

b. When you divide both sides by 2x = 6x it could lead us to think that there is no solution while, in fact, the solution is x = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is correct up to the step 2x = 6x

2x = 6x

Subtract 2x from both sides.

0 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4.

x = 0

You cannot divide both sides by x since x could be zero, and in fact, it is.

Answer: b. When you divide both sides by 2x = 6x it could lead us to think that there is no solution while, in fact, the solution is x = 0.

How to use the slope formula to find the slope of a line<br> please help me!!!!!!!
stepan [7]

Answer:

Sweetie, it's easy. Let me explain.

The slope formula is (y2 - y1) (x2 - x1) you find the slope by putting the rise over the run. For example, if the point goes up 2 and right 3 your slope would be (2,3) and let's just say your next coordinate is (4,5) you would take the y, 5, from the second coordinate and subtract it by the y from the first coordinate, 3. So you would have 2 and you do the same with the x values. So your slope would be 3/2. Hope I helped at all.
