Answer:
1st Side: 27 inches, 2nd Side: 23/2, 3rd Side: 67/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your problem step by step:
First side should be: 2x+4
Because 2 times the second side =, and 4 longer than that.
Second side should be: x
This is the base of the equation, since all the numbers depend on "x"
Third side should be: (3x+4)-5
Because x + x+4, and the third side is 5 shorter..
We add all and we get 72.
Solve for x.
x=23/2
Now, we can solve for other sides, by doubling it and adding 4.
This is answer is correct, I tried it. :)
