Hi! for x, you need to do 2x-8 = x+17 and solve, because since b is the midpoint, ab and bc would be congruent.

2x-8 = x+17
1x-8 = 17
1x = 25
x = 25

in order to find ab, you plug in the x into the expression.

ab = 2x-8
ab = 2(25)-8
ab = 42

do the same for bc:

bc = x + 17
bc = 25 + 17
bc = 42

and for ac, combine the two expressions and plug in the value for x.

ac = ab + bc
ac = 2x-8 + x+17
ac = 2(25)-8 + 25+17
ac = 84

i hope this helped! have a good day/night :)

An angle measures 88° more than the measure of a complementary angle. what is the measure of each angle?
aleksandrvk [35]
Let one angle be x
Let second angle be 88+x
Sum of two complementary angles = 90°
x+ 88+ x = 90°
2x + 88 = 90
2x  = 90 - 88 = 2
x = 2/2 = 1

First angle = x = 1°
Second angle = 88 + x = 88+1 = 89°
I hope it is helpful:D

If gasoline costs 2.14 per gallon and you drive 500 miles in a car that gets 30 mpg, what is the cost of gasoline
Vlad [161]

Answer:

35.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Now you know how many gallons of gasoline will be used by the car. After calculating, you get 16.67. Multiply this by how much it costs per gallon of gasoline, and you get an answer of $35.7.
