Answer:

The answer to your question is: AC = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Segment AC with midpoint = B

AC = 5x - 9

AB = 2x

AC = ?

Process

           total length = AC  but B is the midpoint so AB + AB = CA

                                                                                  2AB = CA

                Substitution        2(2x) = 5x - 9

                                             4x = 5x - 9

Solve for x                           4x - 5x = -9

                                             -1x = -9

                                              x = -9/-1

                                             x = 9

Finally,            AC = 5x - 9

                             = 5(9) - 9

                             = 45 - 9

                             = 36

Write a problem to fit this equation 2K + 5 =29
Degger [83]

2K + 5 = 29

(2 x K) + 5 = 29

29 - 5 = 24

24 divided by 2 = 12 (This is K)

K = 12

(2 x 12) + 5 = 29  


24 + 5 = 29

Scale on map is Lin 86 mi if actual distance is 35 mi . Between two cities how far apart on the map are they
Mrac [35]

Answer:

0.41 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale on the map is 1 in 86 mi.

This means that, 1 cm on the map represents 86 miles in real life, or on earth.

Then we're told that in real life, a distance is 35 miles, and how far they are on the map.

If 1 cm equals 86 miles, then we can say that x cm equals 35 miles

1 cm ----> 86

x cm ----> 35

x * 86 = 35 * 1

x = 35 / 86

x = 0.41 cm

Therefore, they must be 0.41 cm farther or closer apart on the map scale.
