Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • a = 2x +3
  • b = 4x - 7

Finding x for which 3b = 5a:

  • 3b = 5a
  • 3(4x - 7) = 5(2x + 3)
  • 12x - 21 = 10x + 15
  • 12x - 10x = 15 + 21
  • 2x = 36
  • x = 36/2
  • x = 18

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in 4x-7 for b and 2x+3 for a in 3b = 5a

3(4x-7) = 5(2x +3)

Solve for x:

12x-21 = 10x+15

2x = 36

x=18

Triangle ABC is shown below.
Andrew [12]

Answer:

C.) 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the triangle: angles b and c have the same arch, so they are congruent.

In a triangle, if two angles are congruent, then the triangle is isosceles, having two equal sides.

The sides opposite the congruent angles are congruent:

∠B → opposite side → AC

∠C → opposite side → AB

The sides AB and AC are equal. Make an equation:

AB=AC\\\\2x=3x-7

Simplify the equation, solving for x. Add 7 to both sides:

2x+7=3x-7+7\\\\2x+7=3x

Subtract 2x from both sides:

2x-2x+7=3x-2x\\\\7=x

The value of x is 7. Insert the value of x into the given length of AC:

AC=3(7)-7

Simplify multiplication:

AC=21-7

Subtract:

AC=14

Therefore, the length of the line segment AC is 14.
