define the 3 numbers

smallest number = x

middle number = x + 2

largest number = x + 4

write the equation

sum of the smallest number and twice the middle number

\begin{gathered} x+2(x+2) \\ x+2x+4 \\ 3x+4 \end{gathered}

20 more than the largest number

\begin{gathered} x+4+20 \\ x+24 \end{gathered}

equal the expressions

\begin{gathered} 3x+4=x+24 \\ 3x-x=24-4 \\ 2x=20 \\ x=\frac{20}{2} \\ x=10 \end{gathered}

the numbers should be 10, 12 and 14

\begin{gathered} 10+2\cdot(12)=14+20 \\ 10+24=34 \\ 34=34 \end{gathered}

Find x if AB = 9, BC = 2x - 5,<br> and AC = x + 9
Oxana [17]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the fact that line segments AB and BC are parts of the whole line segment AC, we can write the following equation:

AB + BC = AC

Now, using the given values, we can substitute in for the equation and solve for x:

AB + BC = AC

9 + 2x - 5 = x + 9

2x + 4 = x + 9

x = 5

Thus, we have found that for these sets of equations for these line segments, our value for x should be 5.

Cheers.
