Question

If BD=7x-10, BC=4x-29,and CD=5x-9 what is x ?

Answer 1

From the question, we know that the sum of BC and CD equals BD.

BD = BC + CD = 7x - 10

BC = 4x - 29

CD = 5x - 9

Let's set BC and CD equal to BD

4x - 29 + 5x - 9 = 7x - 10

Combine like terms on the left side.

9x - 38 = 7x - 10

Add 38 to both sides and subtract 7x from both sides.

2x = 28

Divide both sides by 2

x = 14
