A is the mid point ==> AL = AB = 2AB
6x-17=2(2x+3) => 6x -17 = 4x +6 => 2x = 23 =>x=23/2
then just plug x into LB and AB
Answer:
2 pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required
Calculate the number of pieces
To do this, we have to divide the length of the wood by the length of each piece.
Represent this with x
Convert mixed numbers to improper fraction
Change division to multiplication
<em></em>
<em> </em>
To expand you must first distribute (multiply) the 2 to the numbers inside the parentheses
2(x - 5)
(2 * x) + (2 * (-5) )
2x + (-10)
2x - 10
There are no like terms, therefore (x - 5)2 expanded is 2x - 10
Hope this helped!

Negative
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
34 years
Step-by-step explanation:
f = s + 28 Eq. 1
f+8 = 3(s+8) Eq. 2
f = father age
s = son age
replacing Eq. 1 on Eq. 2
(s+28) + 8 = 3(s+8)
s + 36 = 3*s + 3*8
s + 36 = 3s + 24
36 - 24 = 3s - s
12 = 2s
12/2 = s
s = 6
from the Eq. 1
f = 6 + 28
f = 34
Check
from the Eq. 2
34+8 = 3(6+8)
42 = 3*14
