Asegment is divided into two parts having lengths in the ratio of 5: 3. if the difference between the length of the parts is 6", find the length of the longest part.

3
9
15
24

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio = 5:3

Let the lengths of the two parts be 5x , 3x

5x - 3x = 6

2x = 6

x = 6/2

x = 3

Length of the longest part = 5x = 5*3 = 15"

there is no question content here, but you for the free points! : d

step-by-step explanation:

if you want to solve percent error follow these steps.

1. subtract the accepted value from the experimental value.

2. take the absolute value of step 1.

3. divide that answer by the accepted value.

4. multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

if you want to solve percent of change just do this.

1. work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

2. divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. if your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage decrease.

hope this : )
