Let S, M, L represent the shortest, mid-length, and longest sides, respectively. You are given three bits of information.
.. S +M +L = 14.5 cm
.. L = 2S
.. L = 6.2 cm
You can use an equation something like this to find the middle-length side.
.. (6.2 cm)/2 +M +6.2 cm = 14.5 cm
.. M +9.3 cm = 14.5 cm . . . . . . . . . . . . . constant terms collected
.. M = 5.2 cm . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 9.3 cm
Now, you know the side lengths are 3.1 cm, 5.2 cm, 6.2 cm.

You have not offered any choices for "which equation," so take your pick of those used here.
Not necessarily. the absolute value of a number is that number's distance from 0 on a number line. if your taking the absolute value of a negative value, what you stated would be true. however, what if you took the absolute value of a positive number? hope that answers your question.
