25-foot long board is to be cut into two parts. The longer part is one foot more than twice the shorter part. How long is each part?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: To solve this problem you must apply the following proccedure:

 1. You have that 25-foot long board is to be cut into two parts. Then, the first equation is:

 a+b=25

 2. 
The longer part is one foot more than twice the shorter part:

 a=1+2b

 3. The system of equation is:

 a+b=25
 a=1+2b

 4. When you solve it, you obtain:

 a=25-b

 25-b=1+2b
 25-1=2b+b
 24/3=b
 b=8 ft

 a=1+2(8)
 a=17 ft

A train travels 45 feet in 1/10 if a second. How far will it travel in 3.5 seconds

Answers

The distance covered by the train in 3.5 seconds will be 1575 feet.

What is speed?

The distance covered by the particle or the body in an hour is called speed. It is a scalar quantity. It is the ratio of distance to time.

We know that the speed formula

Speed = Distance/Time

A train travels 45 feet in 1/10 in a second.

Then the speed will be

Speed = 45 / (1/10)

Speed = 45 x 10

Speed = 450 feet per second

The distance covered by the train in 3.5 seconds will be

Distance = 450 x 3.5

Distance = 1575 feet

More about the speed link is given below.

Answer:

1575 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert 1/10 to decimal to make the math simpler.

1/10 = 0.1

Divide 3.5 by 0.1.

3.5/0.1 = 35

Multiply 35 by 45.

35 × 45 = 1575

The train will travel 1575 feet in 3.5 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

7.

Add the lengths of the sides. Each square on the grid has side 2 units.

9 + 4 + 4 + 8 + 11 + 3 + 2 + 15 = 56

8.

Find the lengths of the bases and the height of the trapezoid. Each square on the grid is 2 units.

Area of trapezoid = (1/2)(b1 + b2)h

area = (1/2)(15 + 11)(9) = 117
