Answer:
3) x = 9
4) x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
3) The two short segments are indicated as having a sum equal to the long segment.
(x +2) +(-5 +x) = 15
2x = 18 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 3
x = 9 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
(This makes the segments be 9+2 = 11 and -5+9 = 4, which total 15.)

4) Same deal.
3x +3 = 4x
3 = x . . . . . . . . subtract 3x
(This makes the segments be 3(3) = 9 and 4(3) = 12, where 9+3=12.)
For the first one it’s 40 feet
The second one is 32
The last is 40

Answer:
x = 37 y = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be one number
Let y = other number
x+y = 49
x-y = 25
Add the equations together
x+y = 49
x-y = 25
---------------
2x = 74
Divide by 2
2x/2 = 74/2
x =37
x+y = 49
37+y = 49
Subtract 37 from each side
37+y-37 = 49-37
y = 12
