Answer:
14 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle bisector divides the sides proportionally, so you have ...
(x+4)/8 = (2x+1)/12
3(x +4) = 2(2x +1) . . . . . . multiply by 24
3x +12 = 4x +2 . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
10 = x . . . . . . . . . . . subtract (3x+2)
Then BD = x+4 = 10 +4.
The length of BD is 14 units.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The "triangle" cannot exist, as the side lengths are shown as 8, 12, and 35. The long side is too long. Nice math; bad geometry.
The value of the expression for the given values of a and b is -1
<h3>Evaluating an expression</h3>
From the question, we are to evaluate the given expression for the given values of a, b, and c
The given expression is
a + b
The given values are
a = 4,
b = -5,
and
c = -8
To evaluate the given expression for the given values of a and b, we will put the values of a and b into the expression,
That is,
a + b becomes
4 + -5
= 4 -5
= -1
Hence, the value of the expression for the given values of a and b is -1

S= $31,500
Check
$31,500 * 5% = $1575 + $31,500 =$33,075
