Acarpenter cuts a 2 metre length of wood into 6 pieces. what is the length of each piece? give your answer to the nearest whole mm.

assuming this means 6 equal lengths

 divide 2 meters by 6

2/6 =0.333 meters each

 0.333 meters = 333.33 mm

rounded off to nearest whole mm would be 333 mm's

333 mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a carpenter cuts a 2 meter length of wood into 6 pieces. We are asked to find the length of each piece of wood.

First of all, we will convert 2 meters to millimeters.

1 meter = 1000 mm

2 meters = 2,000 mm.

Round answer to nearest whole mm:

Therefore, each piece is approximately 333 mm long.

for the friend request.

when a figure, such as triangle (xyz) is reflected over the line y = x to create x'y'z' the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of the original image (pre-image) will be reversed for the image. (e.g., (x, y) > (y, x)) this means that the pre-image position of the x- and y-coordinates switch places which in turn provides a mirror like image of the original xyz.  

i notice that when i draw a line segment from x to x', that the points are parallel from each other -- they are exactly across from each other and do not intersect with any other points.  

yes, think i would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y' with the reflecting line because of the essence of reflections. because it is a mirror image, each point was effected the same way which leads me to conclude that they same would apply to y and y'.
