Question

a 90 in pipe is cut into two pieces. One piece is 20 in more than the other. Find the length of each piece?

Answer 1

is it 65 and 25?

Answer 2

representation:
1 piece= x
2 piece= x+20

equation:
x+(x+20) = 90
x+x+20 = 90
2x = 90-20
x = 70/2
x = 35

therefor: the parts are

x+20= 35+20 =55
x =35

Answer 3

so its 55 and 35?

Answer 4

yeah. .
