let length of one piece = x
length of other piece = 236-x
one piece is three times the length of the other
x=3(236-x)
x=708-3x
4x=708
x=177
so first piece is 177 inches long and second piece is (236-177)= 59 inches long
Answer:
x= (2/5)-(2y/5) (Im not sure if this is what you need but this is the answer simplified)
Step-by-step explanation:
Move all terms that don't contain x to the right side and solve.
Answer:
A) False - not a right angle
B) True - it is a right angle
C) True - it is a right angle
D) False-not a right angle
Step-by-step explanation:
A) a*a+b*b=c*c (Asquared+Bsquared=C squared)
2*2+ 3*3 = 4*4
4+9=16
13 does not equal 16
B) 5*5+12*12=13+13
25+144=169
169=169 - True
C) 3*3+4*4=5*5
9+16=25
25=25 (True)
D) 4+ Root of 3 = Root of 19
False - square root of a prime number is irrational
X=2
subtract 5x on both sides
-2x=-4
divide by -1 on both sides
2x=4
divide by 2 on both sides
x= 2
