Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AB ≅ BD that means they equal the same

2x + 3 = 5x - 6

First: subtract 2x from both sides thus giving you

3 = 3x - 6

Second: add six to both sides, divide by three and simplify

9 = 3x

$\frac{9}{3}$ = $\frac{3x}{3}$

x = 3

Lastly: substitute values of x and simplify

AB = 2(3) + 3 = 9

BD = 5(3) - 6 = 9

9 + 9 = 18

AD = 18

The measure of segment AB is 2x-3 and the measure of segment BD is 5x-6.
If you want to find the measure of segment AD you have to add up AB and BD

So $2x-3+5x-6$ , combine like terms 2x+5x equals 7x and -3-6 equals -9, so the measure of segment AD is $7x-9$

Answer:

The Correct Answer is 365 °F

Step-by-step explanation:

The C to F formula is $(C ~x~ 9/5) + 32 = F$

When we do 185 for C in the formula, we get $(185 ~x~ 9/5) + 32 = F.$

To solve, $(185 ~x~ 9/5) + 32 = F.$ we first multiply 9 by 185, then we divide the product by 5, and then finally we add 32 to the quotient to get the answer.

$185~x~9=1665$
