Answer:

The diameter of Pluto is 2200

Explanation:

Let u = the diameter of Uranus

Let e = the diameter of Earth

Let m = the diameter of Mars

Let p = the diameter of Pluto

u = 52000

e + m + p = 52000 - 30000

e + m + p = 22000

e = 2m

m = 3p or p = m/3

substitute 2m for e and m/3 for p in the bold equation above and solve for m

2m + m + m/3 = 22000 Multiply all the way through by 3 to clear the fraction.

6m + 3m + m = 66000 Combine like terms

10m = 66000 Divide both sides by 10

m = 6600

P = m/3

p = 6600/3 = 2200
