Answer:

  1.67 m, 8.33 m

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of lengths is 1 : 5, then the ratio of the shortest length to the total is ...

  1 : (1+5) = 1 : 6

The shortest length is (10 m)×(1/6) = 1.67 m. The longer length is 10 -1.67 = 8.33 m.

The lengths of the pieces are 8.33 m and 1.67 m.

Solve −2(n+3)−4=8 . The solution is n= .
Anton [14]

Answer:

n= -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

-2(n + 3) + -4 = 8

Reorder the terms:

-2(3 + n) + -4 = 8

(3 * -2 + n * -2) + -4 = 8

(-6 + -2n) + -4 = 8

Reorder the terms:

-6 + -4 + -2n = 8

Combine like terms: -6 + -4 = -10

-10 + -2n = 8

Solving

-10 + -2n = 8

Solving for variable 'n'.

Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '10' to each side of the equation.

-10 + 10 + -2n = 8 + 10

Combine like terms: -10 + 10 = 0

0 + -2n = 8 + 10

-2n = 8 + 10

Combine like terms: 8 + 10 = 18

-2n = 18

Divide each side by '-2'.

n = -9

Simplifying

n = -9

Rounded to the nearest thousand of 275,608
olga nikolaevna [1]
The thousandths place in 275,608 is the 5. Depending on the next number (which in this case is the 6) it will either round up or down. Since the next number is 6 and it's 5 or bigger, the 5 will round up. So your final answer is 276,000.
