Write and solve an equation to represent the following situation. Sarah is replacing her sprinkler lines in the back yard. She buys piece of pipe that is 27 feet long. She cuts off a 6 foot
piece of pipe, and then cuts the remaining amount of pipe into 7 equal length pipes.

Step-by-step explanation:

so the question lets us know 3 things:

1) Sarah has a 27 ft pipe

2) she cuts 6 ft off

3) she cuts remaining pipe into 7 equal sections

what we don't know from the question is how big each of those 7 sections were. To form the equation we do this.

Since we know Sarah has 27 ft of pipe that would be our answer of the equation.

Sarah also removed 6 ft and the rest of the pipe she cut up into 7 small sections of equal length. since we don't know the length of the 7 smaller sections we will use the variable X to represent the length. this means that 6ft + 7x (X is the length of the pipes, and we multiply by 7 since there are 7 of them) must equal Sarah's total length of 27ft, therefore meaning our education would be

to solve for how long each pipe was, we need to solve for X by rearranging the equation as shown bellow.
