Please help me with this one. Will give brainiest.

Jack has a piece of red ribbon that is two times as long as his piece of blue ribbon. he says that he can use two different equation to find out how long his piece of red ribbon is compared to his piece of blue ribbon is. is he correct? explain his reasoning

For each polynomial, determine the degree and write the polynomial in descending order. a. –4x^2 – 12 + 11x^4 b. 2x^5 + 14 – 3x^4 + 7x + 3x^3

Three numbers x, y, and z are in the ratio 2: 7: 8. if 12 is subtracted from y, then three numbers form a geometric sequence (in the order x, y–12, z). find x, y, and z. there are 2 sets.
