Based on the information given, it can be deduced that the number of pieces will be 8 pieces.

<h3>How to solve equations.</h3>

From the information given, it was stated that a landscaper is cutting a 24 1/8-foot rope into pieces to make fences and that the length of each piece is 3 1/5 feet.

Therefore, the number of pieces will be 24 1/8 divided by 3 1/5. This will be:

= 24.125 / 3.2

= 7.53

= 8 pieces.

1. what’s the distance between (-8, -6) and (4, 10)?

Use the formula of a distance between two points:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$(-8,\ -6),\ (4,\ 10)\\\\d=\sqrt{(4-(-8))^2+(10-(-6))^2}=\sqrt{12^2+16^2}\\\\=\sqrt{144+256}=\sqrt{400}=\boxed{20}\\\\(5,\ 14),\ (-3,\ -9)\\\\d=\sqrt{(-3-5)^2+(-9-14)^2}=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(-23)^2}\\\\=\sqrt{64+529}=\boxed{\sqrt{593}\approx24.35}$
