The length of a string is l inches. samantha cuts it into two unequal pieces such that the length of the small piece is 35% of l.
if the length of the big piece is 24 inches longer than the length of the small piece, what is the ratio of the length of the small piece to the length of the big piece as a fraction in its lowest terms?

The shorter piece   x  =  8.4 in

The longer one    y  =  15.6 in

Step-by-step explanation:

If we cut  a string length  L  in to unequal  pieces we get two pieces

first one with length  x  and the other one with length  y

Let call  x  the smaller piece,  then   y = L  -  x will be the longer one

If   x  =  35 %    then

x  =  0,35* L     and

y = L -  x  =  L - 0,35*L      ⇒  y  =  0,65 L     ⇒ y  =  0.65*24

Now if L  =  24  in

x  =  0,35*24          ⇒               x = 8.4 in

and

L  -  x  =  0.65*L      ⇒       L - x  =  0.65*24     y  =  L  -  x  =  15.6 in

as way of verification you can add the length of the two pieces and find:

8.4  +  15.6  = 24 in

correct choice is b

step-by-step explanation:

when you calculate the average rate of change of a function, you are finding the slope of the secant line between the two points. for the function the average rate of change from point to point can be calculated as

to find the average rate of change from day 2 to day 10, note that at day 2, 8 houses were sold, so a(2,8) and at day 10, 2 houses were sold, so b(10,2). thus,
