Answer:
X= -3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
8x + 6 = 0
subtract -6 from both sides
8x = -6
divide 8 from both sides
x = -6/8
Simplify!
x= -3/4
Total length of stick = 42 inches.
Let the shorter piece be x inches.
Thus, the longer piece is 2x.
2x + x = 42
3x = 42
x = 14
Therefore, the length of the two pieces are 14 inches and 28 inches.
