Answer:
16/7
Step-by-step explanation:
If the segments are congruent, their lengths are equal:
(1/2)x -3 = 5 -3x
(3 1/2)x = 8
x = 8/(3.5) = 16/7
The value of x is 16/7.
_____
<em>Comment on the question</em>
This value of x makes the lengths of the segments be -13/7 units. Usually, negative lengths are considered impossible for line segments.
Answer:
117 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
two dozen cookies calls for 234cups of sugar
2 dozen cookies = 234 cups of sugar
How much sugar is needed to make one dozen cookies?
Let x = cups of sugar needed
1 dozen cookies = x cups of sugar
2 dozen cookies : 234 cups of sugar = 1 dozen cookies : x cups of sugar
2 : 234 = 1 : x
2 / 234 = 1 / x
Cross product
2*x = 234 * 1
2x = 234
x = 234 / 2
= 117 cups
