Ответ:
The length of the shortest side is 18 ft
The length of the second side is 21 ft
The length of the third side is 33 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x > the length of the shortest side
y > the length of the second side
z > the length of the third side
we know that
The perimeter of the deck is
P=x+y+z
P=72 ft
so
72=x+y+z > equation A
y=x+3 > equation B
z=2x-3 > equation C
substitute equation B and equation C in equation A and solve for x
72=x+(x+3)+(2x-3)
72=4x
x=72/4
x=18 ft
Find the value of y
y=18+3=21 ft
Find the value of z
z=2(18)-3=33 ft
therefore
The length of the shortest side is 18 ft
The length of the second side is 21 ft
The length of the third side is 33 ft

There were 130 hamburgers sold on Friday
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that the number of hamburgers sold is x
∵ The number hamburgers sold = x
∵ The number of cheeseburgers sold was two times the number of
hamburgers sold
∴ The number of cheeseburgers sold = 2x
∵ On Friday, the shop sold a combined total of 390 hamburgers and
cheeseburgers
→ Add x and 2x, then equate the sum by 390
∴ x + 2x = 390
→ Add the like terms
∴ 3x = 390
→ Divide both sides by 3
∵
= ![\frac{390}{3}](/tpl/images/0899/3283/60b40.png)
∴ x = 130
∵ x represents the number of hamburgers
∴ There were 130 hamburgers sold on Friday
