A 92​-inch 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 nothing inches long.

23 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent

First piece = x

Second piece = y

A 92-inch is cut into two pieces.

x + y = 92

One piece is three times the length of the other.

x = 3y

Find the length of the shorter piece.

Hence:

x + y = 92

x = 3y

3y + y = 92

4y = 92

y = 92/4

y = 23 inches

Solving for x

x + y = 92

x + 23 = 92

x = 92 - 23

x = 69 inches

The shorter piece is 23 inches long.

the options are kind of confusing. i can tell you what i see going on here when i look at the graph.

the class and exam medians are closely related, and it looks like the low outlier on the exam did pull the median lower. [tex][/tex]
