Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4x +2= -5/8x - 5
Add 5/8x to each side
1/4x +5/8x +2= -5/8x+5/8x - 5
1/4x+5/8x +2= - 5
Subtract 2 from each side
1/4x+5/8x +2-2= - 5-2
1/4x+5/8x = - 7
Get a common denominator
1/4 *2/2 x + 5/8x = -7
2/8x + 5/8x = -7
7/8x = -7
Multiply each side by 8/7
8/7x * 7/8x = -7 *8/7
x = -8
False it can work with non right angles triangles too
Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
AB would be 18 or the first choice.
Since BD is the median that means from A to D and from D to C are equal. We set this up as an equation and solve it.
<em>x + 8 = 2x - 17</em>
<em> </em><em><u>+ 17 +17</u></em>
<em>x + 25 = 2x</em>
<em><u>-x -x</u></em>
<em> 25 = x</em>
This gives us our first bit of the answer. Then we plug this into our equation for the length of AB to get 18.
