A 99 ft length of wire is to be cut into 2 pieces, so that the longer piece is eight feet longer than six times the shorter piece. Fond the length of each piece. ​

9514 1404 393

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the length of the short piece. Then the long piece is 6s+8, and the total length is ...

  s +(6s+8) = 99

  7s = 91 . . . . . . . . subtract 8, collect terms

  s = 13 . . . . . . . . . divide by 7

  99 -13 = 86 = 6(13)+8 . . . length of long piece

The short piece is 13 feet long; the long piece is 86 feet long.

answer rather than having to add and subtract the measurements of the semi-circle, notice that the semicircle to the left of ad is actually identical in area to the blank semicircle-shaped space to the left of bc. so if we transferred the red semicircle into the blank space, we would end up with a square of side length 24 cm. the area of a square is s^2 = 24^2 = 676 cm^2.

u also answered this so i think u would know but i am here to

put in or use mine

on monday rodney ate 1/4th of the sandwich = 3/12

on tuesday he ate 1/3rd of the sandwich = 4/12

therefore in total he has eaten = 3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12

thus we can say that he has eaten 7/12 of the sandwich on monday and tuesday alltogether.

happy to

pls mark as brainliest.
