Answer:

1/3 of the original

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The shorter piece is 4 in. long.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the shorter piece can be represented using x.

Thus, you can say that the longer piece is 2x (since it is twice as long as the other piece).

Since, the length of both the pieces will, for sure, add up to 1 ft, then we can say:

x + 2x = 1 ft

Which will simplify into:

3x = 1 ft  (Divide both sides by 3)

x = 4 in. (Since 1 ft = 12 in., we can express it in different units unless you want a non-terminating decimal)

x = 4 in. is the length of the shorter piece since we established that x is the length of the shorter piece earlier on.

Are all sides of the right angle have sides that are parallel

-- The two sides of a right <u>angle</u> intersect and make the angle.
So do the sides of any other angle. So they can't be parallel.

The length of a rectangle is 4 more than it's width. Write an equation that will determine the dimensions if the area of the rec
Firdavs [7]

Answer: The equation is W^2 + 4W - 96= 0

{Please note that ^2 means raised to the power of 2}

Step-by-step explanation: We have been given hints as to the measurement of the length and width of the rectangle. The length is given as four more than the width. What that means is that whatever is the width, we simply add four to get the measurement of the length. Therefore if the width is W, then the length is W + 4.

That is,

L = W + 4 and

W = W

Also we have the area given as 96.

Remember that the area of a rectangle is given as

Area = L x W.

In this question, the Area is expressed as

Area = (W + 4) x W

96 = W^2 + 4W

Subtract 96 from both sides of the equation and we have

W^2 + 4W - 96 = 0.

We now have a quadratic equation from which we can determine the dimensions of the rectangle

The diameter of the wheel is 22 inches what is the circumference of the world use 3.14 for pie
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

69.08 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of the wheel

= 2 pi r

Given

Pi = 3.14

Radius r = diameter/2 = 22/2

= 11

Therefore

Circumference = 2 x 3.14 x 11

= 69.08 inches

The period of a function is 4 pi how many cycles of the function occur in a horizontal length of 12 pi
eduard

Answer:

3 cycles

Step-by-step explanation:

in one period, you have one full cycle

because the period for this function is 4pi, you have one cycle per 4pi

if you have a total of 12pi, you would have 3 cycles (12pi/4pi=3)

hope this helps!
