Answer:

BC = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since line segment AC = 28, that means line segment AB and line segment BC must add up to 28:

x - 10 + x + 2 = 28

2x - 8 = 28

2x = 36

x = 18

Now we plug in <em>x</em> into segment BC's equation to find length of BC:

BC = x + 2

BC = 18 + 2

BC = 20

Answer:

BC = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = AB + BC

28 = x-10 + x+2

Combine like terms

28 = 2x -8

Add 8 to each side

28+8 = 2x-8+8

36 = 2x

Divide by 2

36/2 = 2x/2

18 =x

We want to find BC

BC = x+2

     =18+2

     =20

A car rental agency Advertise renting a car for $24.95 per day and $.33 per mile is Kevin rent the car for today how many whole
pychu [463]

Answer:

Kevin can drive 681 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the amount that he can drive in one day and only pay $250, we have to write an equation for the cost. Using x as the miles he drive, we can express the equation as:

y = .33x + 24.95

Now, we can plug in 250 for y.

250 = .33x + 24.95

225.05 = .33x

681.97 = x

Since we are looking for only whole miles, we have to round down to 681.

anygoal [31]

To solve this, you first subtract 60 by 18 to get 42

You then divide this by 2 to get 21

So, it'll take 21 minutes

How can I use models to help me divide??
Ivan
You can use models to help you divide by making the number of models as your divisor. For example let's say I am dividing 8 ÷ 2. So you would make 8 circles (doesn't have to be circle it can be whatever like squares) and then make groups of 2 until you run out of circles. Then how many groups there are is your answer. 8÷2=4. Hope I helped!
