Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
3(2x + 5) = 33
3 * 2x + 3 * 5 = 33
6x + 15 = 33
6x = 33 - 15
x = 18 / 6
x = 3
DB is a median (given). It goes from vertex point D to midpoint B.
The point B is the midpoint of segment AC. So B cuts AC into two equal halves: AB and AC
Meaning AB = AC
AC = AB+BC ... segment addition postulate
AC = AB+AB ... substitution; replace BC with AB (valid because AB = AC)
AC = 2*AB
2*AB = AC
2*AB = 50 ... substitution; replace AC with 50
2*AB/2 = 50/2 ... divide both sides by 2
AB = 25 which is the answer
Answer:
x = 5 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a parallelogram. diagonals bisect each other.
This means
.


.
Therefore, the length of x = 5 units.
First, you want to get x by itself on one side. We write the equation as

. Since 14 is being subtracted from

, we add it to both sides to cancel it out,

or

.
Your answer would be D.
