A 180-inch pipe is cut into two pieces. one piece is three times the length of the other. find the length of the shorter piece.

Since the two lengths have a relationship to each other, you can use one variable for both

So the shorter length (n) plus the longer length (3n) add up to 180

n + 3n = 180
4n = 180
n = 45

so the shorter board is 45 inches, and the longer one is 3 x 45, or 135 inches.

Hope this helps!

Do the math. she originally had 50 dollars on her gift card and she had 12 dollars left on her gift card after she finished her shopping spree. if you subtract 50 minus 12 you get thirty eight dollars as your answer. so therefore, ciara spent 38 dollars total o

This is what i found “an explicit formula designates the nth term of the sequence, as an expression of n (where n = the term's location). it defines the sequence as a formula in terms of n. this example is an arithmetic sequence(the same number, 5, is added to each term to get to the next term).” i hope this you for what your looking for. can you plz mark me brainliest?
