OpenStudy (raden):
BC = AD
5x - 8 = 2x + 7
solve for x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so the answer is x= 6?
OpenStudy (raden):

ha ? --"
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i dont get ittttt. that's why i need the answer lol
OpenStudy (raden):
5x - 8 = 2x + 7
if you add by 8 to both sides, it means :
5x - 8 + 8 = 2x + 7 + 8
5x = 2x + 15
understand ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ohhhhhh lol. i kinda get it.
OpenStudy (anonymous):

then
both sides subtracted by 2x, it means :
5x = 2x + 15
5x - 2x = 2x + 15 - 2x
3x = 15
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5?
OpenStudy (raden):
3 times what be equal 15 ?
OpenStudy (raden):
