Question

If ED = 10 and DB = 3x – 8, what is the length of EB?

Answer 1

so these two are equal to each other, so a first step can be to set 10 equal to 3x-8. Once we find x, we can add 10 and 3x-8 together to find EB

Answer 2

so if 10 = 3x-8, what is x?

Answer 3

x=6

Answer 4

good job, so that means DB is 3(6)-8 and ED is 10, so can you add the value you got for DB to ED to get EB?

Answer 5

so the answer will be 10

Answer 6

not 10 i meant 20 my bad

Answer 7

No, we have to find the value of EB, which is ED+DB, or 3(6)-8 + 10

Answer 8

Yeah, you got it, correct. Have a good day.

Answer 9

u too
