6a+18 should be your answer
Answer:
B. x = 7; AB = 9, AC = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
12/4 = (x + 2)/(x - 4) (similar triangles theorem)
3 = (x + 2)/(x - 4)
Cross multiply
3(x - 4) = (x + 2)
3x - 12 = x + 2
Collect like terms
3x - x = 12 + 2
2x = 14
x = 14/2
x = 7
✔️AB = x + 2 = 7 + 2
AB = 9
✔️AC = (x + 2) + (x - 4) = (7 + 2) + (7 - 4)
AC = 9 + 3
AC = 12
3/(x+2) = 2/x
multiply both fractions by x(x+2) to cancel out the bottoms
so it becomes 3x = 2x+4
ow subtract 2X from both sides and you get
x = 4
so it took Juan 4 hours
it took Yumi 2 hours more so 4+2 = 6 hours
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
lets have one side =a
P=3a+a+(17+a)=52
P=5a+17=52
5a=52-17
5a=35
a=7
second side=21
third side=24
