A boy purchased (bought) a party-length sandwich 51 in. long. He wants to cut it into three pieces so that the middle piece is 6 in. longer than the shortest piece and the shortest piece is 9 in. shorter than the longest piece. How long should the three pieces be? The shortest piece has a length of in.
Middle piece has a length of in.
Longest piece has a length of in.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have a 51 in sandwich

let a piece be x

we have x= shorter piece

another piece is x+6

another piece (x+6)-9=x-3

x+x+6+x-3=51

3x=51-3

3x=48

x=48/3=16

x=16, longer piece is 16+6=22, shorter piece =10

a. 74 degrees

step-by-step explanation:

because the lines through the side and the box in the corners shows that these are congruent triangles and since they are mirrored the 37 degrees is also mirrored so the answer is 37 * 2 which is 74.

answer: 25.4 units

step-by-step explanation: radius = 12.7 units

diameter = twice the radius

diameter = 12.7 x 2

= 25.4
