<h3>The length of longer piece is 30 inches</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "x" be the length of longer piece
Let "y" be the length of shorter piece
<em><u>The length of a board is 55 inches</u></em>
Therefore,
x + y = 55 -------- eqn 1
<em><u>The board needs to be cut into 2 pieces with one piece 5 inches longer than the other piece</u></em>
Therefore,
x = 5 + y ------- eqn 2
Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1
5 + y + y = 55
2y = 55 - 5
2y = 50
<h3>y = 25</h3>
Substitute y = 25 in eqn 1
x + 25 = 55
x = 55 - 25
<h3>x = 30</h3>
Thus the length of longer piece is 30 inches
Answer: Prime
Step-by-step explanation: To tell if 37 is a prime number or a composite number, begin by finding the factors of 37.
To find the factors of 37, begin by dividing 37 by 1 which gives us 37. This means that 1 and 37 are factors.
Notice however that 37 is not divisible by any other number except 37. When we divide 37 by 37 we get 1. Since 37 and 1 are repeat factors, the only factors of 37 are 1 and 37.
When there are only two factors of a number, we call the number prime.
