Length of Sarah rope = 6 m
Length of Amanda's rope = 4 m
Length of Mary's rope = 7 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of Sarah rope = x
Length of Amanda's rope= x - 2
Length of Mary's rope = (x - 2 ) + 3 = x - 2 + 3 = x + 1
Length of rope = 17 m
x + x - 2 + x + 1 = 17
Combine like terms
x + x + x - 2 + 1 = 17
3x - 1 = 17
Add 1 to both sides
3x = 17 + 1
3x = 18
Divide both sides by 3
x = 18/3
x = 6
Length of Sarah rope = x = 6 m
Length of Amanda's rope= x - 2 = 6 - 2 = 4 m
Length of Mary's rope = x + 1 = 6 + 1 = 7 m
