Find the length indicated.

Write an equation that correctly models the lengths shown.

• 2x + 20 + x + 21 = 9

• 2x + 20 + 9 = x + 21

• 9 + x + 21 = 2x + 20

• 2x + 20 - 9 = x + 21

Write an equation that correctly models the lengths shown.

• 3x + 2 + 6 = 2x - 2

• 2x - 2 + 6 = 3x + 2

• 6 - 3x - 2 = 2x - 2

• 2x + 2 + 3x + 2 = 6

Answer explanation

Segment Addition Postulate

AB + BC = BC

2x + 3x + 5 = 40

5x + 5 = 40

5x = 35

x = 7
