BD = BC + CD
7x - 10 = (4x - 29) + (5x - 9)
7x - 10 = 9x - 38
2x = 28
Ans: x = 14
BC = 4x - 29
= 4(14) - 29
= 27
Ans: BC = 27
CD = 5x - 9
= 5(14) - 9
= 61
Ans: CD = 61
BD = 61 + 27
= 88
Ans: BD = 88
Answer:
- 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-4 = -5
3x = -5 + 4
3x = -1
x = -1/3
Answer:
b = 3w; 54
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the student reads 3 books in one week, we know that one book is three times the amount of weeks, or b = 3w
We can plug in 18 for w to find how many books are read in 18 weeks
b = 3w
b = 3(18)
b = 54
So after 18 weeks she has read 54 books
1. 8/12 = 2/3 segment
2. 3/5 = 3/5 segment
