Answer: 28 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

x - the length of the shorter piece

2x - the length of the longer piece

Together they are 42 cm long.

Compose te equation:

2x + x = 42

3x = 42

x = 14 cm

The shorter piece is 14 cm, the longer piece is twice longer, 2x, or 2( 14 ).

Two times longer than 14 is 28. The longer piece is 28 cm.

Pick 2 pairs of equations t<span>hen use addition and subtraction to eliminate </span>the same variable<span> from both pairs of equations then it is left with 2 variables 
</span>Pick two pairs
<span><span>4x - 3y + z = - 10</span><span>2x + y + 3z = 0
</span></span>eliminate the same variable from each system
<span><span>4x - 3y + z = - 10</span> 
<span>2x + y + 3z = 0</span> 

<span>4x - 3y + z = - 10</span> 
<span>-4x - 2y - 6z = 0</span> 

<span>-5y - 5z = - 10</span> 

<span>2x + y + 3z = 0</span> 
<span>- x + 2y - 5z = 17</span> 

<span>2x + y + 3z = 0</span> 
<span>-2x + 4y - 10z = 34</span> 

<span>5y - 7z = 34
</span></span>Solve the system of the two new equations:
<span><span>-5y - 5z = - 10</span> 
<span>5y - 7z = 34</span> 

<span>-12z = 24</span> 
which is , <span>z = - 2</span> 

<span>-5y - 5(- 2) = - 10</span> 
<span>-5y = - 20</span> 
wich is , <span>y = 4
</span></span>substitute into one of the original equations
<span>- x + 2y - 5z = 17</span> 
<span>- x + 2(4) - 5(- 2) = 17</span> 
<span>- x + 18 = 17</span> 
<span>- x = - 1</span> 
<span>x = 1</span> 
<span>which is , </span><span>(x, y, z) = (1, 4, - 2)</span><span> 
</span>Does 2(1) + 4 + 3(- 2) = 0<span> ? Yes</span><span>
