Answer:
5/6 OR 0.83 (with the three repeating)
Hope that helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
Since p is the midpoint then xp and pay must equal each other
So, 11-6b=6-b
Solve for b
11-6b=6-b
-6 -6
5-6b=-b
+6b +6b
5=5b
b=1
xp=11-6(1)
xp=5
Answer:
The longer piece: 54m
The shorter piece: 19m
Step-by-step explanation:
Make an equation from what is said.
One of the pieces is 'x'
The other piece is 2x+16
x + (2x + 16) = 73m
solve for x
x = 19
plug it in
2*19 + 16
you get 54
so 54 is the longer piece
and 19 is the shorter piece (x was the shorter piece)
Hope this helped :)
The answer is 21.
First you Add both AB and BC which is 10x +14. Then you put 64 into the equation. 10x+14=64. Subtract 14 from 64 which is 50. So 10x=50. Then divide 10 from 50. which would be x=5. So if you plug it in. It would be 21.
