Points A, B, and C are collinear and B lies between A and C. If AC = 48, AB = 2x + 2, and BC = 3x + 6, what is BC? BC=

On a number line, suppose point E has a coordinate of −3,and EG=8.What are the possible coordinates of point G?
The possible coordinates for G are?
Please help!

30

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = AB + BC

48 = 2x + 2 + 3x + 6

48 = 5x + 8

48 - 8 = 5x

40 = 5x

40/5 = x

8 = x

Finding BC

BC = 3x + 6

BC = 3(8) + 6

BC = 24 + 6

BC = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that adding AB and BC will give us AC so we can create an equation and solve for x.

2x + 2 + 3x + 6 = 48

~Combine like terms

5x + 8 = 48

~Subtract 8 to both sides

5x = 40

~Divide 5 to both sides

x = 8

Now that we know the value of x, we can solve for BC.

= 3(8) + 6

= 24 + 6

= 30

I would assume 8 is the length of EG so we would add that value to -3 and find where that would be at on the number.

-3 + 8 = 5

Best of Luck!

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer

0.84 dang lotta people are looking for this lol or if you round up its 1 but the overall answer to that is 0.84
