Answer:
n=48
Step-by-step explanation:
n
_ = 1 6
3
Multiply each side by 3
n/3 * 3 = 16*3
n = 48
So first do 3(x+1) which is 3x+3 because you have to multiply the outside number by the stuff in side the parentheses. Then you do the 5(x-2)+7 and it should be 5x-10+7 so now your equation should be 3x+3=5x-10+7 now subtract the 3x from the 5x and now your equation should look like this: 3=2x-10+7. Then you add the 10 and the 7 so now your equation should look like this: 3=2x-3 because it's a -10 and a positive 7 it would be -3. So then you have to add the -3( which now becomes positive to the other 3 in front of the = sign. So now your equation should look like this: 6=2x. Now divide by 2 to get x by its self and now your answer should be 3=x or x=3.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The angle marks mean those angles have the same measure. That means the sides opposite them have the same measure, so ...
2x -24 = x -2
x = 22 . . . . . . . . . add 24-x
The length of BC is x, so is 22.
BC = 22
