The value of the length of BC is 45 units

<h3>How to determine the length BC?</h3>

The given parameters are:

BC = 15x

AD = 32x - 2

EF = 20.5x + 8

Where the parallel bases are AD and BC and the midsegment is EF

By the midsegment theorem, we have

2 * EF = AD + BC

Substitute the known values in the above equation

2 * (20.5x + 8) = 15x + 32x -2

Open the bracket

41x + 16 = 15x + 32x - 2

Evaluate the like terms

6x = 18

Divide both sides by 6

x = 3

Substitute x = 3 in BC = 15x

BC = 15 * 3

Evaluate

BC = 45

Hence, the value of the length of BC is 45 units

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

A box-and-whisker plot is shown above a number line that extends from 70 to 100 with 1 unit markings. The box extends from 79 to between 90 and 91 with a division at 89. There is also a point marked at 89. The whisker on the left extends from 75 to 79. The whisker on the right extends from between 90 and 91 to 93.

i hope this helps u and makes sense :))
