Answer: One piece is 60 cm and the other is 100cm

Lets think, "x" as the length of each piece.

3 + 5 is 8. So,

x/160 = 3/8

x= 3/8*160

x= 60

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

x/160 = 5/8

x= 5/8 * 160

x= 100

Brainliest pls if it was correct!

Step-by-step explanation:

3:5=

3×5=15

5×3=15

3/15×160=32

the first piece is 32

the second piece=5/15×160=53.334

you have 160 yards of fencing to enclose a rectangular region. find the maximum area of the rectangular region

Dimas [21]

The maximum area of a rectangle when given perimeter is simply perimeter/sides.
To get the maximum area, simply divide 160 (perimeter) by 4 (sides in a rectangle) and then square the result:
160/4 = 40
40 x 40 = 1600
The maximum area, when the sides are all of the same length, is 1600 square yards.
Hope this helps!

Follow the process of completing the square to solve 2x2 + 8x - 12 = 0. After adding B2 to both sides of the equation in step 4,

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I dont quite understand the problem but this is one way to solve it using completing the square:-

2x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0

2(x^2 + 4x) - 12 = 0

2((x + 2)^2 - 4) = 12

2(x + 2)^2 - 8 + 8 = 12 + 8

2(x + 2)^2 = 20

Which equation demonstrates the additive identity property?

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to simplify the expression removing parentheses

Simplify 41o(7 + 4): Distribute the 41o to each term in (7+4)

41o * 7 = (41 * 7)o = 287o 41o * 4 = (41 * 4)o = 164o

Our Total expanded term is 287o + 164o

Simplify 41o(7 + 41): Distribute the 41o to each term in (7+41)

41o * 7 = (41 * 7)o = 287o 41o * 41 = (41 * 41)o = 1681o

Our Total expanded term is 287o + 1681o

Our updated term to work with is (7 + 4) + (7 - 41) = 14©(7 + 4) + 0 = 7 + 287o + 164o(1) = 7 + 287o + 1681o + ( - 7 - 41) = 0

We first need to simplify the expression removing parentheses

Simplify 164o(1): Distribute the 164o to each term in (1)

164o * 1 = (164 * 1)o = 164o Our Total expanded term is 164o

Our updated term to work with is (7 + 4) + (7 - 41) = 14©(7 + 4) + 0 = 7 + 287o + 164o = 7 + 287o + 1681o + ( - 7 - 41) = 0

Step 1: Group variables: We need to group our variables (7 and 14©(7. To do that, we subtract 14©(7 from both sides (7 - 14©(7 = 14©(7 - 14©(7
