Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The segments described in the question are equidistant (meaning they are the same length). Therefore, using algebraic techniques, we can set these two equal to each other and solve for x.

4x - 8 = 6x - 4 Combine like terms by subtracting 6x from both sides.

-2x - 8 = -4 Combine like terms by adding 8 to both sides.

-2x = 4 Divide by -2 on both sides of the equation.

x = -2

Answer:

Apprentice=$800

Journeyman=$1600

Master=$2400

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that all the crew won a total of $4800 then it is the salary of the apprentice, the journeyman and the master carpenter. It say that the journeyman makes 200% of the apprentice, then it means that the journeyman won the double of the apprentice. The master won 150% of what a journeyman, it means that the master won 1.5 of the salary of the journeyman.

With this information we can write the next set of equations.

$A+J+M=\$4800\\J=2A\\M=1.5J$
