here's the solution,

let the length of shorter peice = x

then the lenght of longer peice = 6x + 8

now, we know that the sum of length of peices measures 99 feet,

So,

=》x + 6x + 8 = 99

=》7x = 91

=》x = 13

shorter piece length = 13 feet

longer peice length = 13 × 6 + 8 = 78 + 8 = 86 feet

Determine which set of side measurements could be used to form a right triangle.
musickatia [10]

The set of side measurements that could be used to form a right triangle is 3, 4 and 5 option (D) is correct.

What is a right-angle triangle?

It is a triangle in which one of the angles is 90 degrees and the other two are sharp angles. The sides of a right-angled triangle are known as the hypotenuse, perpendicular, and base.

It is given that:

The side length of the triangle is shown in the option:

As we know,

Pythagoras' theorem is the square of the hypotenuse in a right-angled triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

Using Pythagoras' theorem:

From option(D):

3, 4 and 5

(3)² + (4)² = 5²

9 + 16 = 25 (True)

Thus, the set of side measurements that could be used to form a right triangle is 3, 4 and 5 option (D) is correct.

Collen family plans to paint the window of their house. her father will paint twice as many window as her mother, and collen and
valina [46]

Answer:

21 windows

Step-by-step explanation:

collen family plans to paint the windows of their house. her father will paint twice as many windows as her mother, and collen and her 2 brothers will paint an equal number of the rest of the windows. Colleen decided to do her own share and her mother's share and paints 7 window, which is one less than her father's share. how many windows are in their house?

Answer: Let the number of window Collen father would paint be a while that of her mother be b. Since her father will paint twice as many window as her mother, therefore the number of windows painted by the father a = 2b

Let the number of windows that would be needed to be painted each by Colleen and her 2 brothers be c because they would paint the equal number of windows.

The total number of windows to be painted = 2b + b + c + c + c = 3b + 3c = 3(b + c).

Collen painted 7 windows as her mother and her own share which is one less than the fathers share. Therefore b + c = 7.

Also the fathers share a = 2b = 7 + 1 = 8 windows. Therefore b = 4 which is the mother share

Therefore the total number of windows = 3(b + c) = 3(7) = 21 windows

3b + 3c =  21

3(4) + 3c = 21

12 + 3c = 21

3c = 21 - 12

3c = 9

c = 3 which is collen and her brothers share
