A 56 inch pipe is cut into two pieces. One piece is three times the length of the other. Find the length of the shorter piece. The shorter piece is ___inches long.

Piece A: 42 inches

Piece B: 14 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If the pipe is 56 inches long and divided into 2 parts with a 3;1 ratio, then you would divide 56 by 4 (3;1->3+1) to get 14. 14 would be the smaller piece, then you'd multiply 14 by 3 to get 42 inches because theres 3 parts for the larger piece in the ratio of 3;1. :) the explanation is probably really weird but the answer should be correct anyways

i dont know

step-by-step explanation:

umm. i dont know

1. sometimes

2.   never

3   .08c = 7.50+.05c   250 pages

step-by-step explanation:

1.   sometimes

the theoretical probability of rolling a 1 is 1/6.   perhaps you got really lucky and never rolled a 1   in those 60 times.   your experimental probability is 0.   or perhaps you rolled a 1   20 times.   your experimental probability is 20/60 is 1/3.     it really just depends on how you rolled in that experiment.

2.   never

the probability of the event occurring is 1.   that is being 100 % sure it will happen.   that is the maximum amount of confidence we have.

3.   no customer card cost:   .08 times number of pages

customer card cost:   7.50 + .05 times number of pages

we want to find when it costs the same amount, so we will set these equal

let c = number of pages

.08c = 7.50+.05c

subtract .05c from each side

.08c-.05c = 7.5+.05c-.05c

.03c=7.5

divide each side by .03

.03c/.03 = 7.5/03

c =250  

the cost is the same at 250 pages
