Set up the following equation for this segment:
x is segment AB's length, and 3x is segment BC's length. 20 is segment AC's length.
Combine like terms:
Divide both sides by 4 to get x by itself:
x will equal 5.
Plug this value into the values for both segments:
Segment AB:
Segment AB is 5 inches long.
Segment BC:
Segment BC is 15 inches long.
I agree that and means multiplication, but in this problem it says OR. When you have or, you have to add. 1/2 +1/6 would be 2/3
Answer:
2x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
(4-2x), (-7-3x),(11x+6)
Add the three expressions
(4-2x)+ (-7-3x)+(11x+6)
Combine like terms
-2x-3x+11x+4-7+6
6x+3
Divide by the number of expressions which was 3
(6x+3)/3
2x+1
The average is 2x+1
