Findx. Assume the middle line is a midsegment in the problems below: HELPPPPPP

Answer:  x = 12

midsegment is 16 units long

bottom side is 32 units long

===============================================

Work Shown:

The midsegment 2x-8 is parallel to the bottom side 2x+8

The bottom side is twice as long compared to the midsegment (since the midsegment is half the length of the bottom side).

We can say

bottom side = 2*(midsegment)

2x+8 = 2*(2x-8)

2x+8 = 4x-16

2x-4x = -16-8

-2x = -24

x = -24/(-2)

x = 12

--------------------

Extra info:

Now that we know x, we can find the length of those segments

midsegment = 2x-8 = 2*12-8 = 24-8 = 16

bottom side = 2x+8 = 2*12+8 = 24+8 = 32

Note the bottom side (32) is exactly twice as long compared to the midsegment (16). This confirms we have the correct x value.

The model represents the equation <br> 4x+ 4 = 12<br> What value of x makes the equation true
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to basically do on this one is go backwards.

The beginning equation is 4x+4=12, so to first revesre the adding we are going to use 12, the product, and subtract 4 from it (since that is what was added).

12-4=8

Now you need to reverse the times 4, so to do that just divide instead because that is the invese of multiplication.

8/4=2

Now you have 2, which is the variable, x. To make sure this is right you can just put it into the equation and see if 4x2+4 is 12

Hope this helped!
