Problem:

If ID = 4x +5 and ED = 5x - 3, what is the

measurement of ID and ED?

a. 47

b. 42

d. 32

c. 37

Solution:

• First we need to solve for x.

Given:

4x+5

5x-3

  • 4x+5=5x-3
  • 5+3=5x-4x
  • 8=x
  • x=8

• Now substitute the value of x in the given expressions.

  • 4x+5
  • 4(8)+5
  • 32+5
  • 37

  • 5x-3
  • 5(8)-3
  • 40-3
  • 37

Answer:

The correct answer is letter C. 37.
