Answer:

the two pieces are 9.7 cm and 38.8 cm in length

Step-by-step explanation:

let 'x' represent the length of the smaller piece, then '4x' represents the length of the longer piece

48.5 = x + 4x

x = 48.5 / 5 = 9.7

9.7 * 4. = 38.8

Answer:

We know that the  shorter piece = x and the longer piece is 4x

longer piece = 4x

---------------------------  

x + 4x = 48.5

5x = 48.5  

x = 48.5/5

x = 9.7 cm

9.7 cm - Is the shortest piece length.

The longer piece = 4x = 4 x 9.7 = 38.8 cm

What are the roots of -12x2 + 11x − 3 = 0?
boyakko [2]
This equation is not factor-able, so we can use the quadratic formula.
x=(-11+square root(11^2-4(-12*-3)))/(2*-12)
x=(-11+square root(-23))/(-24)
Since we have the square root of a negative in this equation, there are no real roots for the quadratic.

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

x  = ±2sqrt(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = 8

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(8)

x = ±sqrt(4*2)

We know that sqrt(ab) = sqrt(a)sqrt(b)

x = ±sqrt(4)sqrt(2)

x  = ±2sqrt(2)
