Answer:

AB = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Segment addition postulate,

AC = AB + BC

24 = 2x+6+5x-3

Adding the like terms,

7x+3 = 24

Subtract 3 from both sides,

7x = 24-3

7x = 21

Divide by 7,

x = 21/7

x = 3

AB = 2x+6

AB = 2*3 + 6

AB = 6 + 6

AB = 12

Solving equations:<br><br> (a) 5x - 9 = 3x + 3<br><br> (b) x + 6 = 34 - x
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

a) 5x - 9 = 3x + 3

5x - 3x = 3 + 9

2x = 12

x = 12 / 2

x = 6

b) x + 6 = 34 - x

x + x = 34 - 6

2x = 28

x = 28 / 2

x = 14

Jovie is maintaining a camp fire. She has kept the fire steadily burning for 101010 hours with 151515 logs. She wants to know ho
Eva8 [605]

Answer:666 hours

Step-by-step explanation: The reason is that if you turn the problem into an equation it would be h=Lx. h= hours. L=how long the log lasts and x=how many logs. So when you plug in the numbers you get 101010=L*151515. So we need to find L. What you do is you divide both sides by 151515 since it is the opposite of multiplication. 151515/151515 gets crossed out and 101010/151515 is .6666666666666 irrational. So the equation now looks like .666666 irrational=L. So .66666 irrational is your L. Know you plug .666666 irrational into your original equation. Which is now h=.6666 irrational*x. So to find how long the fire keeps on burning with 999 logs you just plug 999 into x and now your equation looks like this h=.6666 irrational*999. If you multiply .6666 irrational by 999 your final answer is 666.
