Let one piece be x.

Other piece is 3 times as long = 3x

The sum of both pieces would be equal to 8

x + 3x =  8

4x = 8

x = 8/4

x = 2

The shorter piece is x long.

The shorter piece is 2 feet long.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

  • 90 km/h
  • 180 km

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 1000 m in 1 km, and 3600 s in 1 h, so the speed conversion is ...

  \dfrac{25\,m}{s}\cdot\dfrac{1\,km}{1000\,m}\cdot\dfrac{3600\,s}{1\,h}=\dfrac{90\,km}{h}

The car's speed is 90 km/h.

__

In 2 hours, the car will travel ...

  distance = speed · time = (90 km/h)(2 h) = 180 km

A circle is a bounded object with points from its center to its circumference is equidistant.

Area of a circle = πr²

Where :

π = pi = 3.14

R = radius = diameter / 2 = 20m / 2 = 10m

3.14 x 10² = 314m²

Number of boxes needed to cover the garden = area of the garden / coverage of one box

314m² / 58m² = 5.14

5 boxes to one significant figure
