Aboard 60 in. long is cut two parts so that the longer piece is 5 times the shorter. what are the length of the two pieces?

The shorter piece is 10 in. and the longer one is 50 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's set the shorter piece to be length x. Then the longer piece is 5x, or 5 times longer than the shorter piece.

Since both pieces combined equals to the length of the entire board, we can set these two lengths equal to it:

x + 5x = 60

And now solve for x:

6x = 60

x = 10 in (length of shorter piece)

Now let's find the length of the longer piece:

Longer = 5x = 5(10) = 50 in.

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is b: 18

step-by-step explanation:

use the pythagorean theorem to .

a^2+b^2=c^2

plug 18 for "r"

the 2 legs are 18 and 24

18^2+24^2=c^2

324+576=c^2

900=c^2

c=30

30-12=18

18 is the radius
