From point A to C, which is the length of the entire line, it's 3x + 1.
AB = 2x + 4
BC = 10
This means that AB + BC = AC
All you have to do is plug in the equations.
(2x + 4) + (10) = (3x + 1)
2x + 14 = 3x + 1
2x + 13 = 3x
13 = x
Now plug in the value of x (13) into the AC equation (3x + 1).
AC = 3(13) + 1
AC = 39 + 1
AC = 40
The answer is:
a. 40
In order to determine the correct answer, it would be helpful to set up equations. We do as follows:
Let x = students
y = adults
x + y = 215
.50x + 2y = 250
SOlving simultaneously, we have:
x = 120 students
y = 95 adults
Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
Answer:
z= 125 because they are congruent and y = 55 because they are congruent
I hope this is good enough:
DEF= 6 ft^2
A= 1/2*b*h
Plug in what you know.
6= 1/2*4*h
Multiply like terms.
6=2*h
Divide 2 on both sides.
3=h
If the base of ABC= 12
12/4=3
3*3=9
A= 1/2*b*h
A= 1/2*12*9
A= 1/2*84
A= 42
The area of ABC is 42 ft^2
I hope this helps!
