Asked by Ruth

How do I answer this? Robert needs to cut four shelves from a board that is 2.5 meters long. The second shelf is 18 centimeters longer than twice the length of the first shelf. The third shelf is 12 centimeters shorter than the first shelf. The remaining shelf is 4 centimeters longer than the first shelf. If Robert must use the entire 2.5 meter board for the shelves, what is the length of the second shelf, in centimeters?
Answered by Steve
well, just add up the lengths. If the first shelf is x, then

x + (2x+18) + (x-12) + (x+4) = 2.5

Now find x, and the 2nd shelf is 2x+18
