Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
8 plus 9 plus 10 equals 27. so 8 is the smallest.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
14 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle bisector divides the sides proportionally, so you have ...
(x+4)/8 = (2x+1)/12
3(x +4) = 2(2x +1) . . . . . . multiply by 24
3x +12 = 4x +2 . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
10 = x . . . . . . . . . . . subtract (3x+2)
Then BD = x+4 = 10 +4.
The length of BD is 14 units.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The "triangle" cannot exist, as the side lengths are shown as 8, 12, and 35. The long side is too long. Nice math; bad geometry.
the anwser would most likely be 3 because you want the LCM
Answer:
a = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since x = 7 is a solution, substitute x = 7 into the equation and solve for a
4(7) - 2(7 + a) = 8 , that is
28 - 2(7 + a) = 8 ( subtract 28 from both sides )
- 2(7 + a) = - 20 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
7 + a = 10 ( subtract 7 from both sides )
a = 3
