The first piece is 9 feet and the second piece is 21 feet. Explanation:

We know that a 30 foot board is cut into two pieces and that the second piece is three feet longer than twice the first piece.

Let the first piece = x

Let the second piece = 2x + 3

x + 2x + 3 = 30

Combine like terms

3x + 3 = 30

Subtract 3 from both sides

3x = 27

Divide 3 from both sides and we get:

x = 9

The first piece is 9 feet and now we need to find the second piece.

We can use the first piece to find the second piece.

Substitute 9 for x:

2(9) + 3

18 + 3 = 21

So the second piece is 21 feet.

21 + 9 = 30 feet

find the area of each sector. Use the 3.14 as the value of pi. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.​ Part 4
Yuri [45]

Answer:

1) 378.1 in²

2) 8.4 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of sector= \frac{θ°}{360°}  \times \pi {r}^{2}

1) Area of sector

=  \frac{150°}{360°} \times 3.14 \times  {17}^{2}  \\  = 378.1 \: in^{2}  \\ (nearest \: tenth)

2) Area of sector

\frac{60°}{360°}  \times 3.14 \times  {4}^{2}  \\  = 8.4 \: m^{2}  \\ (nearest \: tenth)

Pls help me I don't understand!!!!!!!!
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

X=SMALL BOX.

Y=LARGE BOX

THEREFORE,X+Y=21

X=21-Y

THEREFORE,25(21-Y)+70Y=1110 POUNDS

525-25Y+70Y=1110

525+45Y=1110

45Y=1110-525

45Y=585

Y=585/45

Y=13 .

Therefore,13 large box and8 small box..

The sum of the interior angles of a hexagon is equal to the sum of six consecutive integers. What is the measure of the smallest
Dmitrij [34]
The sum of the interior angles of a hexagon is equal to sum of six consecutive numbers. Hence let the smallest consecutive number be x. Then other five numbers are x+1, x+2, x+3,x+4 and x+5. Hence the measure of the smallest angle is 117.5 cm.
