Answer:
shorter piece: 2 feet
longer piece: 8 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
let the shorter piece be x
then the longer piece will be 3x + 2
<u>if they join together</u>:
- 3x + 2 + x = 10
- 4x + 2 = 10
- 4x = 10 -2
- 4x = 8
- x = 2

The answer is D. Associative Property of Multiplication.
Answer:
258
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up the two equations needed (x is the adult tickets and y is the student tickets)
x+y=372
6x+2y=1776
Solve by elimination
-2(x+y=372)
=-2x-2y=-744
Cancel like figures:
-2x-2y=-744
6x+2y=1776
= 4x=1032
x=258
It has a 31% chance. i used a calculator. so i guess the best answer is B.
