What is the length of bc ?

enter your answer in the box.

units

X + 9 = 2x - 8
2x - x = 9 + 8
x = 17

BC = x = 17

answer
17 units

38+105= 143, 39+104=143, and you will find then adding the numbers on opposite sides, moving inwards yields the answer 138 every time. because of this, you’re going to multiply 138 times the number of pairs, which is 34. therefore, 34*138= 4692(i’m sorry if it’s the wrong numbers, but it’s the right concept)
