Answer:
25.2 in
Step-by-step explanation:
The short piece will have a length that is 2/(2+3) = 2/5 of the entire usable length. The usable length is 60-2 = 58 inches long, so the cut will be ...
(2/5)(58 in) = 23 1/5 in
from the beginning of the usable part. Since the usable part of the ribbon starts 2 inches in, the cut will be 23 1/5 + 2 = 25 1/5 inches from the frayed end of the ribbon.

x = 1
Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
6(x+20)=168
Divide each side by 6
6/6(x+20)=168/6
x+20 =28
Subtract 20 from each side
x+20-20 = 28-20
x =8
