Answer:
piece1: 14 feet
piece2: 16 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
piece1: x
piece2: x + 2
x + x + 2 = 30
2x + 2 = 30
2x = 28
x = 14
piece1: x = 14
piece2: x + 2 = 14 + 2 = 16
Length of short piece = x
Length of longer piece = x + 2
Given x + x + 2 = 30, 2x = 28, x=14
Pieces are 14ft and 16ft long
Length of longer piece = x + 2
Given x + x + 2 = 30, 2x = 28, x=14
Pieces are 14ft and 16ft long
