A 64-inch board is cut into three pieces so that the second piece is twice as long as the first piece, and the third
1 answer:
<h3>
Answer: 40 inches</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
- x = first piece
- 2x = second piece, since its twice as long as the first
- 5x = third piece, since its five time as long as the first
x is some positive real number, and the units of each are in inches.
Add up the smaller pieces and we should get 64 inches back again
x+2x+5x = 64
8x = 64
x = 64/8
x = 8
The first piece is 8 inches long.
2x = 2*8 = 16 is the length of the second piece (in inches)
The third piece is 40 inches because 5x = 5*8 = 40
--------
Summary:
first = 8 inches
second = 16 inches
third = 40 inches
Check: 8+16+40 = 64, which confirms the answer

Answer:
(1,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The rule of the transformation is equal to
(x, y) ------> (x + 3, y + 1)
Pre-image -----> Image
(x, y) ------> (4, 3)
so
x+3=4 ----> x=4-3=1
y+1=3 ---> y=3-1=2
therefore
The pre-image is the point (1,2)
