Trisha has a 28.5 inch piece of wire to make a necklace and a bracelet she has to cut the wire so that the piece for the necklace will be twice as long as the piece for the bracelet find the length of each piece?

Hey there!!

Let's take the measurement of bracelet as x inches

Then, the measurement of the necklace would be 2x inches

The total measure = 28.5 inches

Hence, x + 2x would be equal to 28.5 inches

x + 2x = 28.5

... 3x = 28.5

Divide by 3 on both sides

... x = 9.5

Hence, the length of the bracelet = 9.5 inches

Then, the length of the necklace would be 9.5 × 2

Hence, the length of the necklace = 19 inches
