D is between C and E. CE=6x, CD=4x+8, DE=27. Find CE
solve for x
6x = 4x+8 + 27
105
To find CE, we need to solve the equation CD + DE = CE since CE represents the total length from C to E, which is equal to the sum of the lengths from C to D (CD) and from D to E (DE).
Given that CD = 4x + 8 and DE = 27, we can substitute these values into the equation to get:
4x + 8 + 27 = CE
Now, we can simplify the equation:
4x + 35 = CE
Therefore, CE has a value of 4x + 35.
