Answer:

The length of the pother piece of the wood is 25 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of a piece of wood is x such that the ratio of two pieces is 2:5. Two pieces are 2x and 5 x

Length of the first piece is 10 cm. It means, 2x = 10 i.e. x = 5

We have considered that the length of other piece is 5x. It means 5×5 = 25 cm.

Hence, the length of the pother piece of the wood is 25 cm

I need help with adding decimals

nasty-shy [4]

When you add the decimals it’s the same as regular adding. You line up the decimals and then add all the way across and when you get to the decimal carry it down

The base of a triangle is nine centimeters longer than the perpendicular height. If the area of the triangle is 180 square centi

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations</u>

Let's call

b= base of the triangle

h=height of the triangle

The base is 9 cm longer than the height, thus:

b = h + 9

The area of the triangle is:

$\displaystyle A=\frac{bh}{2}$

$\displaystyle A=\frac{(h+9)h}{2}$

And its value is 180:

$\displaystyle \frac{(h+9)h}{2}=180$

Multiplying by 2:

$(h+9)h=360$

Operating:

$h^2+9h-360=0$

Factoring:

$(h-15)(h+24)=0$

The only valid positive solution is:

h = 15 cm

And b = h + 9 = 24

b = 24 cm

The base is 24 cm long.
