Question

P is between points A and B. AP=13 and AB=27What is PB?Units

Answer 1

Given the data:

`\begin{gathered} AP=13 \\ AB=27 \end{gathered}`

Since P is between A and B

Then

we can represent this as follow

`\begin{gathered} AB=AP+PB \\ 27=13+x \end{gathered}`

Collecting like terms

`\begin{gathered} x=27-13 \\ x=14 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, PB=x=14

Hence, PB= 14 units
