<u>Pre-Alg</u>
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Equality Properties
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
18/13 = 3/4x
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Divide both sides by 3/4: x = 24/13
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute: 18/13 = 3/4(24/13)
- Multiply: 18/13 = 18/13

Answer:
14 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle bisector divides the sides proportionally.
BD/BA = CD/CA
(x+4)/8 = (2x+1)/12
3(x +4) = 2(2x +1) . . . . . multiply by 24 (the least common denominator)
3x +12 = 4x +2 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses using the distributive property
12 = x +2 . . . . . . . subtract 3x
10 = x . . . . . . . . . subtract 2
Then the length of BD is ...
BD = x +4
BD = 10 +4 . . . . substitute the value of x
BD = 14
Answer:
D. 2.69 lb is your answer
13vases=34.97lb
1 vase=34.97/13=2.69lb
(1/5)x + 8
