Answer:
3) x = 9
4) x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
3) The two short segments are indicated as having a sum equal to the long segment.
(x +2) +(-5 +x) = 15
2x = 18 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 3
x = 9 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
(This makes the segments be 9+2 = 11 and -5+9 = 4, which total 15.)

4) Same deal.
3x +3 = 4x
3 = x . . . . . . . . subtract 3x
(This makes the segments be 3(3) = 9 and 4(3) = 12, where 9+3=12.)
I think it's 3
It should be 3 because if you have a base of 6 then your height must be 3 to get 18.
Is this a algebra question? I just want to know?
-1/3
really? it's that easy dude.
whatever number is next to x, like say, 3x, that number would be the slope, so it would be 3.
hope it helped.
Well on this problem recall area of a rectangle is defined by:
A = lw our w = 1/6 and our l = (x +

) we have let 'x' represent our original length.


12x + 8 = 11
12x = 11 - 8
12x = 3
x =

So our original length is
