Answer:

The length of the longest section x = 36 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of the wire = 51 ft

Let first section of wire = x

Second section of wire = y

Third section of wire = z

According to given data

x = 3 y & y = 4 z

Total length of the wire = x + y + z = 51

y + 3 y + \frac{y}{4} = 51

\frac{17}{4} y = 51

y = 12

x = 3 × 12 = 36

z = \frac{y}{4} = \frac{12}{4} = 3

Therefore the length of the longest section x = 36 ft

Answer:

The answer would be d(c(x)) = .60x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write an equation for d(c(x)), start with the d(y) equation.

d(y) = .80y - 5

Now input the c(x) equation in for y and then solve.

d(c(x)) = .80(.75x) - 5

d(c(x)) = .60x - 5

Fine x when 2+6(4-3)=8
erastova [34]

I'm not sure you finished the question because there isn't an x there but I simplified it in case that's what you wanted

2 + 6 = 8

4 - 3 = 1

8(1) = 8

8 = 8

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Ty covered the least distance per min.

Step-by-step explanation:

Who covered the shortest distance per minute, or who rode his bike most slowly?

Andre's rate: (750 m) / (3 min) = 250/3 m/min

Rick's rate:  (800 m) / (4 min) = 200 m/min

Ty's rate:  (950 m) / (5 min) = 190 m/min

Ty was the rider who covered the least distance per minute; his rate was the slowest.
