OpenStudy (anonymous):

Equate \(3x-7\) and \(2x\) since they have the same angle.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(3x-7=2x\) Solve for \(x\). Then substitute your answer back to \(3x-7\).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is 3x-7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you solve for x or no?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

me ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you want help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

draw on a piece of paper

OpenStudy (anonymous):

draw a triangle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

with everything on it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then draw bumps and count the bumps till u get from A To C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it might be 9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The answer should be 7. Since the two angles are congruent, its isosceles. When two angles are congruent, the sides making those angles are congruent. With this, you set up an equation putting the sides equal to each other. 2x=3x-7 You subtract 3x from both sides to get: -1x=-7 You simply divide both sides by -1 to get your answer, which is seven. If you have any questions, please let me know. I apologize for taking so long. :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks so much guys. :)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the length of AC is not equal to x ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

IM out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 7+7=14 but subtract 7 from 14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, segment AC is 3x-7. Plugging in 7 gives you: 3(7)-7=21-7=14. The segment is 14, lildanny2025. You kind of threw me off there, sorry. You were right about x being 7, but the segment, @Guitarlover678, is 14 for sure.
