1,000= 3x+x. 1,000=4x. 250=x. 1,000= 3(250) +250. 1,000=750+250. The bench costs $250.
        
             
        
        
        
X + Y + Z = 8
2x = Z - 2
X + Z = 5
X = 1
1 + Y + Z = 8 
Y + Z = 6
1 + Z = 5
Z = 4
1 + Y + 4 = 8
5 + Y = 8
Y = 3
The variables are 1, 3, 4.

Answer:
The sum of two side lengths of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third. 
So, if two side lengths are 3 and 7, the length of the third side must be less than 10 units. 
However, it cannot be shorter than 4 units, as 3 + 4 = 7.
So your answer is: The third side of this triangle must not be shorter than 4 or longer than 10
