FIND BD -

9514 1404 393

  14 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle bisector divides the sides proportionally.

  BD/BA = CD/CA

  (x+4)/8 = (2x+1)/12

  3(x +4) = 2(2x +1) . . . . . multiply by 24 (the least common denominator)

  3x +12 = 4x +2 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses using the distributive property

  12 = x +2 . . . . . . . subtract 3x

  10 = x . . . . . . . . . subtract 2

Then the length of BD is ...

  BD = x +4

  BD = 10 +4 . . . . substitute the value of x

  BD = 14

(0,-3) see attached graph

step-by-step explanation:

a. to solve the system, graph the two equations.

x = y+3 becomes y=x-3 has m=1/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move up 1 unit and 1 unit to the right. plot a point and connect.

y=-4x+3 has m =-4/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move down four units and to the right 1 unit. plot a point and connect.

the solution is the point (x,y) where the two lines intersect. by the graph below it is (0,-3).

b. to solve by substitution, substitute y = -4x-3 into x= y+3

x= (-4x-3) +3

x=-4x

5x=0

x=0

now substitute x = 0 back in to find y.

y= -4(0)-3

y=0-3

y=-3

solution is (0,-3)

c. use elimination by adding the equations together.

x-y=3

4x+y=-3

5x=0

x=0

then substitute into one equation to find y.

y=-4(0)-3

y=-3
