Mauro has 140 ft of rope. he will cut it into two pieces so that the length of the longer piece is 3 times the length of the shorter piece. what will the length of the longer piece be? enter your answer in the box.

Length of the longer piece be 105 ft .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Mauro has 140 ft of rope.

He will cut it into two pieces so that the length of the longer piece is 3 times the length of the shorter piece.

Let us assume that the length of the shorter piece be x.

Length of the Longer piece = 3x

Than the equation become

3x + x = 140

4x = 140

x = 35 ft

Length of the longer piece = 3 × 35

                                             = 105 ft

Therefore the length of the longer piece be 105 ft .

the answer is a. q=6,r=6√2

step-by-step explanation:

this is a good question! i'll do some research and come back when i have the answer!
