Answer:
23. x = 4; DE = 44
24. x = 25; DS = 28
Step-by-step explanation:
23. Point S is the midpoint of DE, so ...
DS = SE
3x +10 = 6x -2
12 = 3x . . . . . . . . . add 2-3x
4 = x . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
Then DS has length ...
DS = 3x +10 = 12 +10 = 22
and DE is twice that length, so ...
DE = 44
__
24. DS is half the length of DE, so is ...
DS = DE/2 = 56/2
DS = 28
Then x can be found from ...
DS = x +3
28 -3 = x = 25 . . . . . substitute value for DS

Sometimes it is easier to work parts of a problem out of sequence. Here, finding DS first makes finding x easier.
The dollar didn't go anywhere! The question isn't correct because the money the bellhop stole is supposed to be subtracted, not added. So if we subtract $2 we have $25, and that's how much money the owner got, the men got $3 back and the bellboy got $2.
So the owner gets $25, the men get $3 and the bellboy gets $2, and that equals 30.
Answer:
9π ft² or approximately 28.26 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a circle is A=πr².
Plug 3 in for the radius.
A=π(3²)
A=9π ft²,
or using 3.14 for pi,
Approximately 28.26 ft².
For a you have to solve 2 solutions , first 2x=12
6=x then you plug that back in, 12+8y=12
8y=0
y=0
(6,0)
