Question

How do I do this problem?
If BD = 7x – 10, BC = 4x – 29, and CD = 5x – 9, find each value.
x = _______ BC = ________ CD = ________ BD = ________

Answer 1

notice how the big segment BD is made up of two smaller segments (so BD = BC + CD)

replacing the segments with their values

7x - 10 = (4x - 29) + (5x - 9)

can you try solving for x from here?
