<h3>Answer:</h3>

3 11/15 cm

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

AE is the angle bisector of ∠A, so divides the sides of the triangle into a proportion:

... BE:CE = BA:CA = 7:8

Then ...

... BE:BC = 7 : (7+8) = 7:15

ΔDBE ~ ΔABC, so DE = 7/15 × AC

... DE = 7/15 × 8 cm = (56/15) cm

... DE = 3 11/15 cm

50-10x=20 what is the value of x in this problem
Andrew [12]
So what I did was I wrote down the problem 50 - 10x = 20.

The first step I did was take 50 and subtract it from both sides: 50 - 10x = 20
                                                                                                   -50            -50
After that i cross out the so 50's and take 20 and subtract it to 50 which gave me -30. So when you write this down you rewrite it as: -10x = -30

Last step: take the -10 and divide it by both sides the cross out the two -10's cause it's going to be written as -30/-10 which would give you x = 3. So there is your answer, hope this helps. :)

What is the solution to 2x+12=5x-9
Wittaler [7]
So 2x+12=5x-9
you want all of the unknowns on one side and all of  the known values on the other or
subtract 2x from both sides
12=3x-9
add 9 to both sides
21=3x
divide both sides by 3
7=x
