AS a fraction it would be 8 1/4 hope this helped
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not certain but I guess that's it
First factorise the top = -(w+6)
The first factorise the bottom: (w^2 + 4w -12) = (w+6) (w-2)
Therefore the two (w+6) cancels out and you are left with -1 / w-2
X + y = 136
x = 3y - 16
3y - 16 + y = 136
4y - 16 = 136
4y = 136 + 16
4y = 152
y = 152/4
y = 38
x = 3y - 16
x = 3(38) - 16
x = 114 - 16
x = 98
the larger piece (x) = 98 ft and the smaller piece (y) = 38 ft
