Answer:

See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find AB.

They give the equation for AB, BC, and AC

AC - BC = AB

substitute the equations

(30) - (8x + 3) = 6x + 8

30 - 8x - 3 = 6x + 8

27 - 8x = 6x + 8

     +8x  +8x

27 = 14x + 8

-8            -8

19 = 14x

19/14 = 14x/14

1.3571428 = x

0.1 = tenth

1.4 = x

Substitute x into the equation for AB

6(1.4) + 8

16.4

[tex]1.)~First~you~need~to~make~an~equation:[/tex]

  • [tex]\bold{30-8x+3=6x+8}[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{You~do~this~by~using~all~the~information~available~and~set~it~up~to~solve~for~AB.}[/tex]

[tex]2.)~Add~30~and~3~to~get~33:[/tex]

  • [tex]\bold{33-8x=6x+8}[/tex]

[tex]3.)~Subtract~6x~from~both~sides:[/tex]

  • [tex]\bold{33x-8x-6x=8}[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{Causes~signs~to~change~and~the~equation~gets~rearranged.}[/tex]

[tex]4.)~Combine -8x~and~-6x:[/tex]

  • [tex]\bold{-8x-(-6x)=-14x}[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{33-14x=8}[/tex]

[tex]5.)~Subtract~33~from~both~sides:[/tex]

  • [tex]\bold{33-33=Cancels~out}[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{8-33=-25}[/tex]

[tex]5.)~Divide~both~sides~by~-14:[/tex]

  • [tex]\bold{-14x}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\bold{-14=x}[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{-25}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\bold{-14=-1.78571429}[/tex]

[tex]6.)~Simplify:[/tex]

  • [tex]\bold{1.78571429}~(Take~Away~the~Negative!)[/tex]
  • [tex]\bold{1.8}~(Round~to~the~Nearest~Tenth!)[/tex]

[tex](To~Round~look~at~that~number~in~the~tenth~place:~7,\\~now~look~to~the~number~to~the~right:~8.~\\\\So~if~that~number~is~greater~than~or~equal~to~5,~then~you~round~up.\\If~that~number~is~less~than~or~equal~to~5,~then~you~round~down.)[/tex]
