Answer:

AC = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Since B is on the segment AC, then

AC = AB + BC, substitute values

5x = 2x +10 + x , that is

5x = 3x + 10 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

2x = 10 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 5

Thus

AC = 5x = 5(5) = 25

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

First: 15

Second: 21

Third: 45

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to create the equation we need to represent the evenings with an alebraic term, in thsi case we are going to represent the second evening with an X

Second evening:x

The first night she got 6 fewer calls than the second: Second-6=x-6

The third night she received 3 times the first: 3(first night)=3(x-6)

The equation is First Night plus second night plus third night equals 81.

First+second+third=81\\x+(x-7)+3(x-6)=81\\x+x-7+3x-18=81\\5x=81+21+6\\5x=105\\x=\frac{105}{5} \\x=21

So the first evening he received 15 calls, the second he received 21 and the third one he received 45.
