A16 foot piece of string is cut into two pieces so that the longer piece is 1 foot longer than twice the shorter piece find the length of both pieces

x = long piece

y = short piece

 x = 2y+1

2y +1 +y =16

3y +1 = 16

3y =15

y = 15/3 =5

 y = 5

x = 2(5) +1 = 11

short piece is 5 feet

long piece is 11 feet

step-by-step explanation:

so the possibilities of the measurement of the side of the triangle are either it is longest side or not the longest side

when it is the longest side

s < 25 + 35s < 60

if it is not the longest side

35 < 25 + s10 < sso 10 < s < 60so the perimeter70 < p < 130
