Answer 1

Answers:

Choice C)  1.5 + AB = 3.7

AB = 2.2  cm

====================================================

Explanation:

Segment AC can be cut into two smaller pieces AB and BC. The piece AB is of unknown length for now, while BC is 1.5 units long.

The expression AB+1.5 or 1.5+AB represents us adding those two smaller pieces together. Doing so will lead to the length of AC.

Therefore, 1.5 + AB = 3.7 is one valid equation to set up.

------------

To solve that equation, we subtract 1.5 from both sides to undo the addition operation done to AB.

1.5 + AB = 3.7

AB = 3.7 - 1.5

AB = 2.2

Notice how,

1.5 + AB = 1.5 + 2.2 = 3.7

to help confirm our answer.
