Question

A fish is 15 inches long. The head (H) is as long as the tail (T) If the head was twice as long, the combined head and tail would be as long as the body (B). How long is each portion of the fish i.e. H, B and T?​

Answer 1

Answer:

T=3

H=3

B=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

H=T

2H+T=B

H+T+B=15

Combine all 3 equations

T+T+(2T+T)=15

5T=15

T=3

As T=3 then H=3

B =2(3)+3=9
