2x+2+x=20
3x+2=20
3x+2-2=20-2
3x=18
18/3=6
So x=6
So the shorter one is 6ft and the longer piece is 14ft. (Additional work to help support answer more) 14+6=20 and 6*2+2=14.
1. To find how much cardboard he needs to paint you need to find the area of the cardboard which is length times width. So in this case, it would be 16 1/3 feet times 6 feet. Or 49/3 times 6/1. This gives you 294/3 or 98 feet.
2. To find this you would divide the total area by how much area each bottle covers to find how many bottles you need. 98 divided by 30 is 98/30 which reduces to 49/15 or 3 4/15. Since you can’t have 4/15 of a bottle, you’d round up to 5 bottles of paint.

Answer:
The time now is 7 pm
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that now is the time T.
We know that:
"if time is four hours from now, the time left till midnight would be a quarter that if it is one hour from now".
Then:
if we define midnight as 12, and we assume that T is in the pm range.
Then the "time left till midnigth, assuming that the time is four hours from now" will be written as (12 - (T + 4))
With this in mind, we can write the problem as:
12 - (T + 4) = (1/4)*( 12 - (T + 1))
Now we can solve this for T.
12 - T - 4 = (1/4)*(12 - T - 1)
8 - T = (1/4)*(11 - T)
4*(8 - T) = 11 - T
32 - 4*T = 11 - T
32 - 11 = -T + 4*T
21 = 3*T
21/3 = T
7 = T
Then T = 7 pm
The time now is 7 pm
Answer:Joanie watched 4/15 of the movie at night
Step-by-step explanation:
Let total amount of movie to watch = 1 whole since we are dealing with fractions
Amount of movie watched in the morning = 1/3
Amount watched at night = x
Amount remaining= 2/5
so that Total amount of movie to watch - Amount watched in morning and night = Amount remaining to watch
1 - ( 1/3 + x ) = 2/5
1- 2/5 = 1/3 + x
3/5 =1/3 + x
3/5 - 1/3 = x
9- 5/15 = x
x= Amount watched at night = 4/15
