Answer:
Ed and Sheerie save 7.5%.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved using a rule of three.
Ed and Sherrie save $90 each pay period from their combined paychecks, which total $1200. What percent do Ed and Sherrie save?
How much of $1200 is $90? $1200 is 100% = 1, $90 = x. So
$1200 - 1
$90 - x



Ed and Sheerie save 7.5%.
A = first piece, b = second piece, c = third piece
a + b + c = 47
b = 3a
c = 5a + 2
a + (3a) + (5a + 2) = 47.....combine like terms
9a + 2 = 47
9a = 47 - 2
9a = 45
a = 45/9
a = 5 ft
b = 3a.....b = 3(5)....b = 15 ft
c = 5a + 2....c = 5(5) + 2.....c = 25 + 2....c = 27 ft
longest piece (c) = 27 ft
