3x = 9y
9y = 3x
y = 3x/9
y = 1/3x

The equation to find the length of the longer piece is
x- 12 = 55
Step-by-step explanation:
- A carpenter had two pieces of lumber that totaled in length = 55 feet
- The shorter piece than the longer piece has length of which is = 12 feet
- The longer piece is denoted as= x
- Find x = ?
- The equation can be formed to find the value of x as,
- Longer piece (x) ₋ shorter piece (12) = total length (55)
- Therefore, x ₋ 12 = 55
- the above equation states that
- if you subtract the shorter piece from the total length of the you will get the length of the longer piece.
- therefore,
- if you shift the value of shorter length on the right hand side, you can find the value of x
- so, x= 55 ₋ 12
- value of x = 43
- therefore, the length of the longer piece is 43 feet long.
Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We know a triangle adds up to 180 so:
75+36+ ? = 180
111+ ? =180
? = 69
To find out x, we know that a straight line adds up to 180 so again:
x +69 = 180
x = 111
