3) A is between B and C. If BC= 8x + 5, AB= 2x + 4, and AC= 3x + 7, then

find AB

AB = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

A is between B and C. If BC= 8x + 5, AB= 2x + 4, and AC= 3x + 7, then find AB

Step 1

Find x

BC = AB + AC

8x + 5 = 2x + 4 + 3x + 7

Collect like terms

8x - 2x - 3x = +4 + 7 - 5

3x = 6

x = 2

Step 2

Find AB

= AB= 2x + 4

AB = 2(2) + 4

AB = 4 + 4

AB = 8

x=0

step-by-step explanation:

answer:   35 % is the probability of a late departure or an early arrival.

step-by-step explanation:

let l represents the late departure and e represents the early departure.

then, according to the question,

p(l) = 12 %,   p(e) = 27 % and = 4 %

and, we have to find out,

but, we know that,

which is the required equation that will use to find the probability of a late departure or an early departure.

therefore,   the probability of a late departure or an early arrival =   35 %
