Question

Hi, i’m not sure how to solve this one.. i worked to find the X and i got X= 2.72 but i think i did it wrong.

Answer 1

We jave the following:

`\begin{gathered} ED=EB+BD \\ ED=4x+6 \\ EB=x \\ BD=30 \end{gathered}`

Therefore,

`\begin{gathered} 4x+6=x+30 \\ 4x-x=30-6 \\ x=(24)/(3) \\ x=8 \\ EB=8 \\ ED=4\cdot8+6=38 \end{gathered}`

the answer is

x = 8

EB = 8

ED = 38
