piece of string is cut into two pieces so that the longer piece is 3

feet

longer than twice the shorter piece. if the shorter piece is x feet long, find the lengths of both pieces.

The longer string would be Nine feet and the shorter would be three feet? If I understood the question correctly

Nine Minus three is six, divided by two is three. So Nine would be three more than double than three..? 

The shorter piece would be 3 feet long and the longer piece would be 9 feet long.

200 miles.45 x 3 (charge per day times days)135$205$ - 135$ = 70$0.35x = 70divide both sides by 0.35200
