Answer:
Length of longer length=132 inches
Length of shorter length=33 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Determine total length of pipe
Total length of pipe=165 inches
Step 2: Derive expression for all the lengths
We can express all these lengths as follows;
L=l1+l2
where;
L=total length
l1=length of longer piece
l2=length of shorter piece
but;
length of longer piece=4×length of shorter piece
replacing;
l1=4l2
replacing;
L=165
l1=4×l2
165=l 2+4 l2
5 l2=165
l2=165/5
l2=33 inches
l1=length of longer length=33×4=132 inches
l2=length of shorter length=33 inches
the constant term is 12
All the other terms have variables attached to them
The equation of the new function is 
Explanation:
The Parent function is 
We need to determine the new function g(x) using the transformation by stretching the f(x) horizontally by a factor of 4 and shifting it 1 unit up.
The function transformation formula is given by

Where a stretches the function vertically
b compresses or stretches it horizontally,
c shifts the function left or right
d shifts the function up or down
Since, it is given that the function stretches horizontally by a factor of 4 and shifting it 1 unit up.
Hence,
and 
Substituting these values in the formula, we have,

Thus, the equation of the new function is
