Hello! First off, Staci is buying a ticket for herself, which costs $87.96. She has $200 with her. 200 - 87.96 is 112.04. Now, the t-shirts cost $30 each. We can divide the amount she has left by 3 to get the number of shirts she ca=an buy. 112.04/30 is 3.73466666, but you can't have part of a shirt. Therefore, the maximum amount of t-shirts Staci can purchase is 3.

HJ = 23.5 in

$\textsf{ \underline{\underline{Steps to solve the problem} }:}$

Take HJ = a, GH = b and GJ = c

a = b + 2

c = a + b - 17

a + b + c = 73

put the value of a from equation 1 in equation 2

c = (b + 2) + b − 17

c = 2b − 15

now, put the value of a and c in equation 3

b + 2 + b + 2b − 15 = 73

4b − 13 = 73

4b = 86

b = 21.5 in

Now, we need to find HJ (a)

a = b + 2

a = 21.5 + 2

a = 23.5 in

${ \qquad \large \sf {Conclusion} :}$

HJ = 23.5 in
