The answer is 144.

AC and CE have the same ratio as BA and DE. So you can get the answer by getting their proportions. 

<u>  84  </u> =  <u> 7 </u>
156-x     x 

Cross multiply, transpose, and simplify to get the variable x.

84x = 1092-7x
84x + 7x = 1092
91x = 1092
x = 12

To get AC, substitute. 

AC = 156 - x
AC = 156 - 12
AC = 144

A home is to be built on a 56 foot 9 inch wide lot. The house is 5 feet 5 inches from the side of the lot and is 34 feet 10 inch
daser333 [38]
<span>Total lot - house -other side
=(56 ft 9 in) - (34 ft 10 in) - (5 ft 5 in)
=(55 ft 21 in) - (34 ft 10 in) - (5 ft 5 in)
=16 ft 6 in
Convert to inches: </span>16 ft x 12 in/ft)+ 6 in= Total in inches<span>192 in + 6 in= Total in inches
198 in= Total in inches 
Check: One side + house + other side = Lot width
(5 ft 5 in)+(34 ft 10 in)+(16 ft 6 in)=Lot width
56 ft 9 in=Lot width, which equals the given.</span>

58 = 7/4x well, basically I am really bad with fractions, and I'm supposed to do this on a computer, I don't have a calculator I
KiRa [710]
58=7/4x
Multiply both sides by 4 so the fraction cancels out:
232=7x
Divide both sides by 7:
x=33.14 (rounded)

Hope this helps :)
