We are given that the shorter piece is x
From your description, the longer piece is 2x + 2
The total length is
x + 2x + 2 = 14
ie
3x + 2 = 14
3x = 12
x = 4
So the length of the shorter piece is 4 ft
Therefore the length of the longer piece must be
(14 - 4) ft = 10 ft
3 times a number (x) minus y equals y plus 2 times x all multiplied by 5
