The length of the shorter string is 18 inch while that of the longer string is 30 inch.

An equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Let s represent the length of the shorter string.

One piece is 12 inches longer than the other

Length of longer string = s + 12

Since a 48-inch piece of string is cut into two pieces. Hence:

s + (s + 12) = 48

2s + 12 = 48

2s = 36

s = 18

Length of longer string = 18 + 12 = 30

The length of the shorter string is 18 inch while that of the longer string is 30 inch.

Answer:

y=1/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line goes up by 1 over by 2 each time or 1/2. (Rise over run)

This can be proven by substituting X and Y for a point on the graph.

What is one third the difference between 3/4 and 2/3?
Ivan

Answer:

One third the difference between 3/4 and 2/3  is (\frac{1}{36} )

Step-by-step explanation:

One third the difference of A and B  =  \frac{1}{3} \times (A-B)

Here, as given in the question:

A = \frac{3}{4} , B = \frac{2}{3} \\\implies A  - B =  \frac{3}{4} - \frac{2}{3}\\=(\frac{3 \times 3 -2 \times 4}{12})  = (\frac{9-8}{12} ) = (\frac{1}{12})\\ \implies  A  - B =  (\frac{1}{12})

Now, one third of the difference is :

(\frac{1}{3}) \times (\frac{1}{12}) =   (\frac{1}{36})

Hence, one third the difference between 3/4 and 2/3  is (\frac{1}{36} )
