Answer:
The answer to your question is: first piece = 4 in, second piece = 8 in, third piece = 12 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
total length = 24 inches
first piece = x in
second piece = 2x
third piece = 3x
Equation
x + 2x + 3x = 24
6x = 24
x = 24/6
x = 4 length of the first piece
second piece = 2(4) = 8 inches
third piece = 3(4) = 12 inches
3x + 11.63 = 20
3x + 11.63 - 11.63 = 20 - 11.63
3x = 8.37
by subtracting the 11.63 from both sides, this tells us how much the grapes cost....not per lb., but for the total of all the grapes.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Take out 3x from both sides:
5x - 3x = 3x - 3x
2x = 0
2x + 9 = 1
Take out 9 from both sides:
9 - 9 = 1 - 9
0 = -8
Divide 2 from both sides:
