Answer: Is your question "What is the length of each side?"

Let x = the length of the second side

Let x - 5 = the length of the first side

Let (x - 5) - 2 = the length of the third side

P = a + b + c

x + x - 5 + x - 7 = 42

3x - 12 = 42

3x = 54

x = 18 yards

x - 5 = 13 yards

x - 7 = 11 yards

umka21 [38]

2 weeks = 14 days

10 / 14 = 0.71428571428

0.71428571428 * 31 = 22.1428571429

The town received about 22 inches of rain.

If you include the 2 weeks, then it would be 32 inches of rain.
