Answer:
- x = 8
- 12 = BD
- 23 = BE
- 13 = CE
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>We know that:</u>
- BD = 2x - 4
- DE = 2x - 3 - 2
- BE = 3x - 1
- CE = 2x - 3
<u>Solution:</u>
- (2x - 4) + (2x - 3 - 2) = 3x - 1
- => 2x - 4 + 2x - 3 - 2 = 3x - 1
- => 4x - 9 = 3x - 1
- => 4x - 3x = 9 - 1
- => x = 8
- => 2x - 4 = BD
- => 2(8) - 4 = BD
- => 16 - 4 = BD
- => 12 = BD
- => 3x - 1 = BE
- => 3(8) - 1 = BE
- => 24 - 1 = BE
- => 23 = BE
- => 2x - 3 = CE
- => 2(8) - 3 = CE
- => 16 - 3 = CE
- => 13 = CE
Hence, the answers are:
- x = 8
- 12 = BD
- 23 = BE
- 13 = CE
1.666666, any decimal or number that is repeating can be written in a/b format and b not equal zero is rational. Repeating decimals can be considered rational because they can be represented as a ratio of two integers.
