If B is the midpoint of AC, that means that the distances from A to B and B to C are the same. The distance from A to B is 8x + 4, and the distance from B to C is 10x - 6, so we can set these two equivalent:
8x + 4 = 10x - 6
Solving for x:
4 = 2x - 6 (subtract 8x from both sides)
10 = 2x (add 6 to both sides)
5 = x (divide both sides by 2)
So, x = 5, which is the second option given.

Answer:
48 feet of fence
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangle has 4 sides, the parallel sides are equal to each other in length.
If Hector used 14 feet of fence on the long side, he used 28 feet in total for both long sides.
If Hector used 10 feet for the width/short side, he used 20 feet in total for both short sides.
Put simply: (14 x 2) + (10 x 2) = 48 feet of fence in total
Answer:
10.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount of salt in one liter is 1.2 ounces, meaning to make one pound (16 oz) it would take 13 1/3 liters of water.
For 2.5 pounds, it would be 2.5*16, or 40-- 40 liters for 2.5 pounds of salt.
40 liters in (U.S.) gallons is 40/ (approximately) 3.785 , or 10.5680, 10.6
