BD is already given to you as bisected. AC must also be bisected. That means that 6x and 7x - 5 must the the same value. Then and only then will the figure be a parallelogram. (a four sided figure is a parallelogram if the 2 diagonals are bisected.
Equation
6x = 7x - 5 Subtract 6x from both sides
Solution
6x - 6x = 7x - 6x - 5 Simplify
0 = x - 5 Add 5 to both sides
5 = x - 5 + 5 Simplify
x = 5
Answer:
B. Between x 2 and x 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The first part of the second line, she left the -5 there. The correct work and solution should be this:
5(2x-1)-3x=5x+9
<span><span>7x</span>−5</span>=<span><span>5x</span>+<span>9
</span></span>2x-5=9
2x=14
x=7
