Answer:
a) 10x + 8 = 21
b) x = 1.3
Step-by-step explanation:
The line of symmetry is a vertical line that passes through point C.
That makes sides BC and CD congruent, and sides AB and ED congruent.
perimeter = AB + BC + CD + DE + EA
perimeter = 2x + 3 + x + 1 + x + 1 + 2x + 3 + 4x = 10x + 8
perimeter = 21
a) Equation:
10x + 8 = 21
b)
10x + 8 = 21
10x = 13
x = 1.3

Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
If Alex cut his wire 18 times, he ended up with 19 equal pieces. He kept 7, so has 7/19 of his 1/3 of the wire.
Bob cut his wire 20 times, so ended up with 21 pieces, of which he kept 9. So he has 9/21 = 3/7 of his 1/3 of the wire.
Claudia kept 1/13 of her 1/3 of the wire, so has the smallest piece.
Bob kept (3/7)·(1/3)·126 cm = 18 cm.
Alex kept (7/19)·(1/3)·126 cm ≈ 15.47 cm.
Bob kept the longest part of the original wire.
