KIMYURIIIN

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

  • Length of the one portion of the board = x feet
  • Length of the another portion = (7x – 9) feet

According to the question,

[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex] Total length = Sum of the length of the two pieces

[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex] Total length = {x + (7x – 9)} feet

[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex] Total length = {x + 7x – 9} feet

[tex]\longrightarrow[/tex] Total length = (8x – 9) feet

Therefore, the total length of the board as a simplified expression in x is (8x – 9) feet.
