Answer: zero and zero nineteenth thousandths
Step-by-step explanation:
X - shorter piece
3x - 2 - longer piece
x + 3x -2 = 18
x + 3x = 18 +2
4x = 20 | : 4
x=5
3*5 -2 = 15 - 2 = 13
shorter piece: 5 ft
longer piece : 13 ft

Answer:
x= -8 x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 +6x - 6 = 10
Subtract 10 from each side
x^2 +6x -16 =0
Factor what 2 numbers multiply to -16 and add to 6
8*-2 = -16
8-2 = 6
(x+8) (x-2) =0
Using the zero product property
x+8 =0 x-2 =0
x= -8 x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer of this equation is x = 3
