A 180 ft long board is cut into 3 pieces. The second piece of board is twice as long as the first. The third piece of board
is six times as long as the first.
What is the length of the first piece of the board?
A) 20 ft
B) 40 ft
C) 60 ft
D 120 ft

20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

1st piece = x

2nd piece = 2x

3rd piece = 6x

x+2x+6x=180

9x=180

x=20

so the first piece is 20 feet, the second is 40, and the third is 120.

answer:

your answer is: c. 196 7/8 in^3.

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
