When lines cross each other in a triangle from a point to the mid point of the opposite side as shown, AV  is 2 times as long as VF

To solve for X we would have AV = 2*VF

The equation becomes:

3x+6 = 2(x+6)
 
Now we solve for X

3x+6 = 2(x+6)

Distribute the 2 on the right side:

3x + 6 = 2x +12

Subtract 2x from each side:

X +6 = 12

Subtract 6 from each side:

x = 6


 Now if you needed to solve the length of AV or VF, you replace x with 6 and solve.

Lincoln middle school plans to collect more than 2,000 cans of food in a food drive. So far, 668 cans have been collected. WRITE
AURORKA [14]
Let x be the unknown number.

7x + 668 < 2000     => 7x plus 668 is less than 2000

where:
7x => x represents the number of cans to be collected in 7 days
668 is the number of cans already collected.
2000 is the target number of cans.

7x  +  668    <    2000
 <u>       - 668           -668</u>
7x                <   1332
<u>÷7                        ÷7</u>
x                  <    190.30
or
x < 190

To check:

7x + 668 < 2000
7(190) + 668 < 2000
1330 + 668 < 2000
1998 < 2000

when a pen is sold at a discount of 15%.There is a gain of rs 10.But if it is sold at 25% discount there is a loss of rs 2.Find
Svetradugi [14.3K]

When a pen is sold at a discount of 15% there is a gain of rs 10

When the pen is sold at 25% discount there is a loss of rs 2

Therefore the mark price of the pen can be calculated as follows

15% = c.p + 10 rs

25 % = c.p - 2 rs

25%-15% = 10 rs +2 rs

10% = 12 rs

10/100 = 12 rs

0.1= 12 rs

12/0.1

= 120 rs

Hence the mark price of the pen is 120 rs
