Answer:

x = 8
12 = BD
23 = BE
13 = CE

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

BD = 2x - 4
DE = 2x - 3 - 2
BE = 3x - 1
CE = 2x - 3

Solution:

(2x - 4) + (2x - 3 - 2) = 3x - 1
=> 2x - 4 + 2x - 3 - 2 = 3x - 1
=> 4x - 9 = 3x - 1
=> 4x - 3x = 9 - 1
=> x = 8
=> 2x - 4 = BD
=> 2(8) - 4 = BD
=> 16 - 4 = BD
=> 12 = BD
=> 3x - 1 = BE
=> 3(8) - 1 = BE
=> 24 - 1 = BE
=> 23 = BE
=> 2x - 3 = CE
=> 2(8) - 3 = CE
=> 16 - 3 = CE
=> 13 = CE

Hence, the answers are:

x = 8
12 = BD
23 = BE
13 = CE

If x-1/3 = k and k = 3, what is the value of x ? A) 2 B) 4 C) 9 D) 10

Semenov [28]

Answer:

None of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

x-1/3 = k

We know that k=3, so we can substitute that into the equation

x-1/3 = 3

Add 1/3 to each side

x-1/3 + 1/3 = 3+1/3

x = 3 1/3 or as an improper fraction 10/3

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

. Simplify: (4x2 - 2x) - (-5x2 - 8x).

Solution:

(4x2 - 2x) - (-5x2 - 8x)

= 4x2 - 2x + 5x2 + 8x.

= 4x2 + 5x2 - 2x + 8x.

= 9x2 + 6x.

= 3x(3x + 2).
