a 56-inch board is to be cut into three pieces so that the second piece is three times as long as the first piece and the third piece is four times as long as the first piece if x represents the length of the first piece find the length of all three pieces ​

Step-by-step explanation:

length of 1st piece = x inch

length of 2nd piece = 3x inch

length of 3rd piece = 4x inch

x + 3x + 4x = 56

8x = 56

x = 7

Thus,

length of 1st piece = 7 inch

length of 2nd piece = 3 × 7 = 21 inch

length of 3rd piece = 4 × 7 = 28 inch

step-by-step explanation:

x > 1.3

step by step:

8.5−0.9x> 9.8−1.9x

step 1: simplify both sides of the inequality.

−0.9x+8.5> −1.9x+9.8

step 2: add 1.9x to both sides.

−0.9x+8.5+1.9x> −1.9x+9.8+1.9x

1x+8.5> 9.8

step 3: subtract 8.5 from both sides.

1x+8.5−8.5> 9.8−8.5

1x> 1.3

step 4: divide both sides by 1.

1x/1 > 1.3/1
