First, we draw our line.
|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
a e
Next, break up this line into segments using the information.
|----------------------|----------------------|--------------------|------------------|
a b c d e
The entire line is 29.
ab + bc + cd + de = ae
ab + bc + cd + de = 29
You also know that
bd = bc + cd
Due to midpoint theorem,
ab = bc
cd = de
Then,
2ab + 2cd = 29
The equations we will use are
bd = bc + cd eq1
2bc + 2cd = 29 eq2
Dividing both sides of the equation in eq2 yields
bc + cd = 14.5
bd = bc + cd
bd = 14.5
A suitable calculator can row-reduce the augmented matrix.
first number: 3
second number: 1
third number: 8
The second one is the answer
Answer:
E. b + u = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
