5) A section of rope is divided into 4 pieces. The 1st piece is 3 times as long as the 2nd piece. The 3rd piece is as long as the 2nd piece less 25 feet. The 4th piece is 2 times as long as the 2nd piece plus 30 feet. Write an expression representing each rope piece. How long is each piece of rope if the total length is 425 feet.​

1= 180 ft

2 = 60 ft

3= 35 ft

4= 150 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

1 = 3x

2=x

3=x-25

4= 2x+30

425= 7x -5

420=7x

x=60

the solution is h=10 because you add 9 to each side of the equation.

c.   x=2.4cm

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
