Answer:
The first piece is 6 inches, the second piece is 24 inches, and the third piece is 30 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the second piece is 4 times longer than the first one, it will be represented by 4x.
The third piece is 5 times as long as the first one, so it will be represented by 5x.
Create an equation adding up the 3 x values up to 60:
x + 4x + 5x = 60
Add like terms and solve for x:
10x = 60
x = 6
So, the first piece is 6 inches.
Then, plug in 6 for x to find the lengths of the second and third pieces.
4x
4(6)
= 24
The second piece is 24 inches
5x
5(6)
= 30
The third piece is 30 inches
So, the first piece is 6 inches, the second piece is 24 inches, and the third piece is 30 inches

Since the distance of MN is 31 and we have a distance of ML
of h -15 and LN of 2h – 8, therefore
ML + LN = h -15 + 2h – 8 = 31
h = 18
substituting the value of h to the expression for LN
obtaining
LN = 2h – 8
LN = 2(18) – 8
LN = 28
Therefore the length of the segment LN is 28 units
Polynomial comes from poly- (meaning "many") and -nomial (in this case meaning "term") ... so it says "many terms"
A polynomial can have:
constants (like 3, −20, or ½)
variables (like x and y)
exponents (like the 2 in y2), but only 0, 1, 2, 3, ... etc are allowed
that can be combined using addition, subtraction, multiplication and division ...
... except ...
... not division by a variable (so something like 2/x is right out)
So:
A polynomial can have constants, variables and exponents,
but never division by a variable.
Also they can have one or more terms, but not an infinite number of terms.
These are polynomials:
3x
x − 2
−6y2 − ( 79 )x
3xyz + 3xy2z − 0.1xz − 200y + 0.5
512v5 + 99w5
5
(Yes, "5" is a polynomial, one term is allowed, and it can be just a constant!)
These are not polynomials
3xy-2 is not, because the exponent is "-2" (exponents can only be 0,1,2,...)
2/(x+2) is not, because dividing by a variable is not allowed
1/x is not either
√x is not, because the exponent is "½" (see fractional exponents)
But these are allowed:
x/2 is allowed, because you can divide by a constant
also 3x/8 for the same reason
√2 is allowed, because it is a constant (= 1.4142...etc)
