Answer:

Let x rep the lenght of the shorter one

Then the longer one is 2x+1

Therefore

(2x+1) + x = 16

We now solve for x

2x + 1 + x = 16

Group and evaluate like terms

3x +1 = 16

3x = 16 -1

× = 15/3

x = 5

So the shorter one is 5 ft

The longer one is 2(5)+1= 11

Step-by-step explanation:

5+5 = 10 + 1 = 11

12 + 12 = 24 +1 = 25
