Step 1: x²-15=2x
step 2: x²-2x-15=0
step 3: (x-5)(x+3)=0
step 4: x-5=0 or x+3=0
step 5: x=5 of x=-3
Ok so let's start with what we know- the shortest piece is 8 inches so there's one length... then the middle piece is 6 inches longer than the shortest (6+ 8) so the middle piece would be 14 inches long. To find the last piece we can add up the other two pieces we know (14+8) which would be 22 and subtract that from how long the whole sandwich is (59-22) which would be 37 inches long. So in the end he shortest piece would be 8 inches, the middle 14 inches and the longest 37 inches.
