Samuel has a board that is 44 inches long. He wants to cut it into two pieces so that one piece is 6 inches longer than the other. Which of the equations below could be used to find the length of the shorter piece, s? Check ALL that apply.

2s = 50
s + s + 6 = 44
s + s = 44 + 6
2s = 38
2s + 6 = 44
s + 6 = 44

s + s + 6 = 44

2s = 38

2s + 6 = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Length of the board  = 44inches

Unknown:

equation to find the shorter piece s = ?

Solution:

 let the longer piece  = L

 Shorter piece  = s

s + L = 44 i

Now,

   L  = s + 6 ii

put L  = s + 6 into i;

  s  + s + 6  = 44

     2s + 6  = 44

    2s  = 44 - 6

    2s  = 38

step-by-step explanation:

3 1/3 x 2 3/5 = 8 2/3

step-by-step explanation:

just multiply the first number by the second number to get your answer.
