Answer:

The shorter piece is <u>37</u> inches long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the shorter piece be x and the longer piece be 5x.

Short piece + Long piece = 222 inches

x + 5x = 222

6x = 222

x = 222 ÷ 6

x = 37

Without graphing classify each system as independent dependent or inconsistent -x -y=7<br> 5x-5y=5
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Is a consistent independent system

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

-x-y=7 -----> isolate the variable y

y=-x-7 ----> equation A

5x-5y=5 -----> isolate the variable y

y=x-5 ---> equation B

Compare equation A and equation B

We can affirm that

The slopes are not equal ( so the lines are not parallel)

The lines are different

The product of their slopes is equal to -1 (the lines are perpendicular)

so

The system of equations has only one solution

therefore

Is a consistent independent system
