Answer:
work is shown and pictured
Step-by-step explanation:
this simply means that the sum of both short segments must be the same as the length of the whole line.
so,
x + 6 + x + 8 = 10
2x + 14 = 10
x + 7 = 5
x = 5 - 7 = -2
u= -449
714=6(u+629)-366
<u>+366 +366</u>
1080=6u+3774
<u>-3774 -3774</u>
6u=-2694
<u>÷6 ÷6</u>
u=-449
