Answer:   10 cm

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Short Piece: x

Second Piece: 2x

Third Piece: 2x + 6


Short + Second +  Third = 56

  x     +     2x      + 2x + 6 = 56

                             5x + 6 = 56

                             5x       = 50

                               x        = 10

Help!!!!!!?!!!!!!!!!!??????????
bulgar [2K]

Step-by-step explanation:

A value is excluded when it makes the rational expression undefined. (such as making the denominator 0, etc.)

For example when x = 8, (x - 8) at the denominator will become 0 and make it undefined.

The correct options are the 3rd and 4th ones.
