Answer:
The quotient ix 3x - 1.
Explanation:
Use Long division:
3x - 1 <------------quotient.
---------------------
x + 3) 3x^2 + 8x + 3
3x^2 + 9x
-------------
-x + 3
-x - 3
------
6 <---------remainder.
If AB = BC then set up the equation 3x - 4 = 5x - 10
Subtract 3x.
-4 = 2x - 10
Add 10.
6 = 2x
Divide by 2.
3 = x
AB is 3x - 4 so
3(3) - 4
9 - 4
5.
AB = 5
If AB is not equal to BC then this is not solvable.
But if they are I am sure AB = 5.
Hope this helps
You are correct. The answer is choice C.
The other choices A, B, D have each side add up to 180 degrees either because the angles are a linear pair (adjacent and supplementary) or because the angles are same side interior angles. Same side interior angles are supplementary if a transversal line cuts through a pair of parallel lines as so happens in this diagram.
Answer :
x = 2.8
