Answer:

X = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is what I am picturing (not to scale)

A ----------------B-----------C

We are given the information of AB (which equals 3x + 1), BC (which equals 4x - 5), and AC (which equals 8x - 9).

With reference to the line, AB + BC = AC

So,

3x + 1 + 4x - 5 = 8x - 9

7x - 4 = 8x - 9

5 = x

The difference between one-fifth of a number and 4 is -75
Varvara68 [4.7K]
Think of this as (1/5)x - 4 = -75, where x is the number that we are trying to figure out. To figure this out, we want to get x by itself, so we can go:

(1/5)x=-71
x=-71*5
x=-355

So your number is -355
