Answer:

BD is 3.75 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

BA = 6 units

CA = 8 units

DC = 5 units

To Find:

BD = ?

Solution:

Triangle Angle Bisector Theorem.

An angle bisector of an angle of a triangle divides the opposite side in two segments that are proportional to the other two sides of the triangle.

I.e Here in Δ BAC,

AD is the Bisector of ∠ A

∴ \frac{BA}{CA}= \frac{BD}{DC}

Substituting th above given values in it we get

∴ \frac{6}{8}= \frac{BD}{5}

∴ BD = 5\times \frac{6}{8} \\\\BD = \frac{30}{8} \\\\BD = 3.75\ units\\

Therefore BD is 3.75 units

Lin solved the equation
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: x=1/2

she was wrong, it's supposed to be

Step-by-step explanation: 8(x−3)+7=2x(4−17)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

8(x−3)+7=2x(4−17)

(8)(x)+(8)(−3)+7=2x(4−17)(Distribute)

8x+−24+7=−26x

(8x)+(−24+7)=−26x(Combine Like Terms)

8x+−17=−26x

8x−17=−26x

Step 2: Add 26x to both sides.

8x−17+26x=−26x+26x

34x−17=0

Step 3: Add 17 to both sides.

34x−17+17=0+17

34x=17

Step 4: Divide both sides by 34.

34x/34=17/34 x=1/2
