Rick cuts a 12-foot-long ribbon into 2 pieces. One piece is 3.5 feet longer than the other. What is the length of each piece?

1 answer:

3 0

Its impossible there is no way to solve it because x+3.5= y no number can make 12 if one number is 3.5 ft longer than the other Ignore this i dont feel like erasing this part.

144 in. 42 in. greater than the other 42 + x = y Nvm if you convert the numbers too in. the numbers are 93 + 51 = 144 and if you convert it back it would be

7.75 + 4.25 = 12

Solve the following for the specified variable Z=s/2(P+p); for P

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf P = \frac{2Z}{s} - p}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf Solve \ for \ P: \\ \sf \implies Z = \frac{s}{2} (P + p) \\ \\ \sf Z = \frac{s}{2} (P + p) \ is \ equivalent \ to \ \frac{s}{2} (P + p) = Z: \\ \sf \implies \frac{s}{2} (P + p) = Z \\ \\ \sf Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ \frac{s}{2} : \\ \sf \implies P + p = \frac{2Z}{s} \\ \\ \sf Substrate \ p \ from \ both \ sides: \\ \sf \implies P = \frac{2Z}{s} - p$
