Answer:

The correct answer is 82

Step-by-step explanation:

1st piece=x

2nd piece=3x+3

3rd piece=4x-8

Combine like terms:

x+3x+4x=8x

3-8= -5

8x-5=175

8x-5+5=175+5

8x=180

x=22.5

1st piece=22.5 in

2nd piece=70.5 in

3rd piece= 82

3rd piece is the biggest, so the correct answer is 82

AB=4x+3 and CD=24+5x find bc
madam [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. use distribution factor

(4x+3)(24+5x)

4x times 24 = 96

4x times 5x = 20x

3 times 24 = 72

3 times 5x = 15x

2. combine like terms

96 + 72 = 168

15x + 20x = 35x

35x + 168 or 168 + 35x

I may be wrong please check my answer. I may have a lapse in my algebra, or I may have misunderstood the problem. But this is what I can give you to the best of my knowledge.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

The Equation which shows the equality is 53 = 2 h + 5 ,

The age of Sunny's house is 24 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as ;

The age of the house of Chen's is 53 years old

Let the age of of the house of sunny = h years old

So, according to question

Chen's house age is 5 years more than twice the age of sunny's house

I.e Chen's house age = 2 × sunny's house age + 5

Or, 53 = 2 × h + 5

or,  2 × h = 53 - 5

so . 2 × h = 48

∴    h = \frac{48}{2} = 24 years

Hence The Equation which shows the equality is 53 = 2 h + 5 , And The age of Sunny's house is 24 years old .  Answer
