First we know that:
AB+BC=AC
now , since B is the midpoint of AC, this means that AB=BC
therefore,
AB+BC=AC can also be written as
AB+AB=AC
3x-1+3x-1=8x-20
6x-2=8x-20
-2+20=8x-6x
18=2x
x=9
therefore:
AB=3(9)-1=27-1=26
AC=8(9)-20=52
BC=AB=26
Answer:
i think thats my answer
Step-by-step explanation:
1 5/8
The ratio 2:7. Add 7 and 2 together to get 9. Then divide 243 by 9 which is 27. 27x2 is 54 so. There was 54 students out of state. And 189 that were in state
