Answer:
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+2x-7=2x+35
then solve for x
Answer:
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that A, B and C are collinear points and B is in between A and C.
The length from A to B is [tex] 3 x [/tex], length from B to C is [tex] 2x - 7 [/tex] and AC is [tex] 2 x + 35 [/tex].
We are to find the value of x.
[tex] A B + B C = A C [/tex]
[tex] 3 x + 2 x - 7 = 2 x + 3 5 [/tex]
[tex] 3 x + 2 x - 2 x = 3 5 + 7 [/tex]
[tex] 3 x = 4 2 [/tex]
[tex] x = \frac { 4 2 } { 3 } [/tex]
x = 14
