The perimeter of a triangle is (x ft, x+1 ft, x+2 ft) find the value of x to make exactly measures 24 ft?

the value of x is 7 by adding all the polynomials, equate it at 24 and do the transposition.
we have x
lets name the 2nd y
and the 3rd z

first we subtract the excess amount of the other sides from the total lenght
so 24-(1+2)=21
next we divide it by three so we get seven
x=7
y=x+1=8
z=x+2=9
