Answer:

shorter piece = 6. longer piece = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

short piece = s

long piece = l

l+s= 18

l= 6+s , substitute

6+s+s = 18

6+2s= 18

2s= 18-6

2s= 12

s=12/2

s= 6= shorter piece

l= 6+s

l= 6+6= 12 = longer piece

The radius of a circular track is 0.2 mile. Ellie ran around 3 times. How many kilometers did she run
My name is Ann [436]
Circumference = 2πr
So the circumference of the track is C = 2π .2  or .4π
3 times around the track is .4π x 3 or 1.2π  - this is the answer but most teachers will want you to use 3.14 for pi.
so 1.2 x 3.14 = 3.768 km

Do you notice that I waited until the end to use the actual value of pi (3.14) in my calculations.
Keeping things in pi units until the very end saves time.
