1. a board is 10.17 feet long. sandy needs
to cut the board into 3 equal sections.
how long will each section be? how
many sections would be needed for each
section of the 10.17-foot-long board to
be 5.085 feet each? write an equation to
model your work.

  n=   0.0000 - 0.3750 i  

  n=   0.0000 + 0.3750 i

step-by-step explanation:

one of these should be correct

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
