Hello! this is a super mega long question and i’m super mega desperate for like i’d marry you i’m that desperate. a flower bed is in the shape of a triangle with one side twice the length of the shortest side, and the third side is 22 feet more than the length of the shortest side. find the dimensions of the perimeter is 186 feet.

The three sides are

41

63

82

Step-by-step explanation:

... 186 is on the right side.

... The shortest side is x

... The middle side is 2x

... The third side is x + 22

... These three sides add to 186

Equation

x + 2x + x + 22 = 186  

Solution

... Collect like terms

x + 2x + x = 4x

4x + 22 = 186                 Subtract 22 from both sides.

4x = 186 - 22                  Combine

4x = 164                         Divide by 4

x = 164 / 4

x = 41

Check

Shortest side = 41

Middle Side = 2*41 = 82

3rd Side = 41 + 22 = 63

Total                  186 which is what the total should be.
