Let p be the size of the smallest piece.
Then we know that it (p) plus the middle piece (p + 5) and the longest piece (3 x p) adds up to 75.
p + (p+5) + 3p = 75
=> 2p + 5 + 3p = 75
=> 5p = 75 - 5
=> 5p = 70
=> p = 14
So the smallest piece is p = 14 ft.
The middle piece is p + 5 = 19 ft.
And the largeset peice is 3p = 42 ft.
Adding the sizes to check: 14 + 19 + 42 = 75

How does arc length affect voltage?
The longer you strech the arc, the smaller the voltage. Current rises though.
What are the relationships between the frequency of a simple pendulum and its mass amplitude and length?
The lower the frequency, the larger mass and longer length, The higher the frequency, the smaller the mass, and shorter the length.

What is the length of a rectangle?
Conventionally, it would be the measure of the longer sides.The length is that of its longest side.
Where is the length in the rectangle?
The length of a rectangle is typically considered to be the longer of the two sides, also referred to as the longer dimension. It is measured along the longer side of the rectangle from one end to the other.
How does area change when the length changes?
When length gets longer the area will be larger. As the length gets shorter the area will be smaller.
Is the length of a rectangle generally understood to be the measure of the longer side?
Yes, the length of a rectangle is generally understood as the longest side(s).

What is the longest poem - a sonnet an epicor a ballet?
A Sonnet is the shortest (14 lines) and an epic is the longest most of the time. But ballads and epics have no length requirements so a balled could be longer.
How does arc length affect voltage?
The longer you strech the arc, the smaller the voltage. Current rises though.
What is the smallest parrot?
The budgerigar, or budgie for short, is commonly regarded as the smallest parrot, but there are smaller species. Various species of parrots known as "parrotlets" (scientific name Forpus coelestis) are smaller, at only about 11-13 cm in length. The difference between these birds and budgies is that the budgies' tails are longer, giving them an extra cm or so in length. This holds true only for the original budgie, native to Australia, not the larger varieties that have been bred from these, and which are common pets in places such as England.
What are the relationships between the frequency of a simple pendulum and its mass amplitude and length?
The lower the frequency, the larger mass and longer length, The higher the frequency, the smaller the mass, and shorter the length.
Why does the middle finger is the longest finger?
The middle finger is not always the longest finger, but in some people it may appear longer due to variations in finger length. Finger length is determined by genetics and may vary from person to person.
