Hello!
Since D is the midpoint and the two equations are and both sides of point D the equations equal each other
9x - 7 = 3x + 17
Now you solve it algebraically
Add 7 to both sides
9x = 3x + 24
Subtract 3x from both sides
6x = 24
Divide both sides by 6
x = 4
Now we put this into both equations and add them
9(4) - 7 = 29
3(4) + 17 = 29
29 + 29 = 58
The answer is 58 units
Hope this helps!

Hi there!
Evalute by substituting in 5 for x:
w(5) = 9(5) + 8
Simplify:
w(5) = 45 + 8 = 53
Answer:
7cm
Step-by-step explanation:
One side of a square is increased by 8 cm, let us say the length got increased by 8 cm. So we have length of x + 8 cm
An adjacent side, the width, decreased by 2 cm. So we have width of x - 2cm
Perimeter of rectangle = 2(length + width)
40 = 2( (x + 8) + ( x - 2) )
40 = 2( 2x + 6)
40 = 4x + 12
28 = 4x
x = 7 cm
That is 7 cm of the length of the side of the square
