Simply divide your wire by 12 and cut off the excess (as it cannot make a full 12-inch section).
27

÷12=2

So you have two 12-inch sections and an additional 3.4-inch section.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
According to the side-splitter theorem, the two sides of the triangle is divided proportionally if the line that intersects both sides is parallel to the third side of the ∆.

Step-by-step explanation:
Its 26.315% or rounded to 26.32% commission
Explanation; you take the total of the car, and then divide that by the exact amount Ken earned leaving you with the commission
18,250 ÷ 693.50 = 26.315789474 (normally using only the first two decimals when counting money, rounded to the nearest tenth) leaving you with 26.32
Take any 2 points through which the line on graph passes,
(0,-1) =(x₁,y₁)
& (2,-4)=(x₂,y₂)
slope=(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)
=[-4-(-1)]/(2-0)
=-3/2
