Answer:

  • shortest: 13 in
  • middle: 17 in
  • longest: 23 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the shortest side. Then the longest side is (s+10) and the middle side is (s+(s+10)-19). The perimeter is the sum of the sides.

  s + (2s-9) +(s+10) = 53

  4s +1 = 53

  s = (53 -1)/4 = 13

The side lengths are ...

  • shortest: 13 in
  • middle: 17 in
  • longest: 23 in

Answer:

6 slices

Step-by-step explanation:

The full pizza is 12 pieces.  Divide 12 by 4 to find out how much she ate on Thursday.   1/4 of 12 is 3 so she ate 3 slices on Thursday.  Subtract 3 from 12 to find out how much was left for the next day.  There were 9 slices the next day.  Next, divide 9 by 3 to find out what 1/3 of 9 is.  1/3 of 9 is 3 so subtract 3 from the 9 slices.  6 slices are the original pizza remain.
