Given segment AC and point B that lies on AC,
1 answer:
The total length of the segment AC is the sum of AB and CB, which gives, CB = 9
<h3>How can the length of CB be found?</h3>The given parameters are;
- AC = 17
- AB = 32 + 3•x
- CB = 57 + 6•x
Required: <em>CB</em>
Solution:
AC = <em>AB + CB</em> by segment addition property
Therefore;
AC = 17 = 32 + 3•x + 57 + 6•x = 89 + 9•x
17 = 89 + 9•x
CB = 57 + 6•x = 57 + 6 × (-8) = 9
Therefore;
- <u>CB = 9</u>

Required
The height of the tank
Let y represents the remaining fraction before water is added.
So:
Make y the subject
Solve
Represent the volume of the tank with v
So:
Make v the subject
Substitute:
Represent the height of the tank with h;
So, the volume of the tank is:
Make h the subject
Substitute values for v, l and w
