The Definition Of a Midpoint says that is B is the
midpoint of segment AC, then segment AB ≅ AC.
Since segment AB ≅ segment BC, we can setup
the equation 2(3x - 1) = 8x - 20 and we can solve from here.
Start by distributing the 3 through the parenthses on the left side.
So we get 6x - 2 = 8x - 20.
Now subtract 8x from both sides to get -2x - 2 = -20.
Now add 2 to both sides and we have -2x = -18.
Finally, dividing both sides by -2, we find that x = 9.
If x = 9, segment BC must be 3(9) - 1 or 27 - 1 which is 26.
Hi there!
The Eqn. is :-
1.5 (x + 4) - 3 = 4.5 (x - 2)
1.5x + 6 - 3 = 4.5x - 9
Combining the like terms :-
1.5x - 4.5x = - 9 - 6 + 3
- 3x = - 15 + 3
- 3x = - 12
x =
x = 4
Hence, the required answer is → x = 4
~ Hope it helps!

Answer:
time left for question C = 12 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Total time required for the three quiz= 30 minutes
time spent on question A= 10 9/10 minutes
Time spent on question b= 6 3/5 minutes
Time spent on Question c= Total time required for the three quiz -( time spent on question A+Time spent on question b)
30 - ( 10 9/10 + 6 3/5)
30 -16 (9+ 6/10)
30- 16 15/10( 15/10 = 1 5/10)
30 - 16 + 1 5/10
30 - 17 5/10
From 30, we remove 1 whole number to subtract the fraction from the other number so we have
29 - 17 ( 1 -5/10)
=12 5/10 = 12 1/2
