  1. Start by distributing the -5 into the x and 3
  2. -17-5x-15=3x
  3. add like terms
  4. -5x-32=3x
  5. add 32 to both sides
  6. -5x=3x+32
  7. subtract 3x from both
  8. -8x=32
  9. divide both by -8
  10. x=-4

Please help me find BD
Tanzania [10]

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.

ozzi

Answer:

41%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the cash price is $500, the hire purchase price is calculated by summing the installment and down-payment:

Hire \ Purchase \ Price=Installments +Downpayments\\\\=8\times 72.50+125\\\\=705

#Percentage increase in price is the difference between the hire purchase price and list price as a percentage of the list price:

\bigtriangleup Price=705-500\\\\=205\\\\\%\bigtriangleup Price=\frac{\bigtriangleup Price}{500}\times 100\%\\\\\\=\frac{205}{500}\times100\%\\\\=41\%

Hence, the % increase in price is 41%
