Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

In a rectangle, the diagonals have the same length. Therefore:

[tex]3x+6=5x-18 \\\\3x+24=5x \\\\ 24=2x \\\\x=12 \\\\BD=5(12)-18=60-18=42[/tex]

Hope this helps!

Answer:

BD = 42

x=12 is found below as a way to find x

We can find 42 by adding together the equations

3x+6 = 5x-18

+18 = 5x(-3x-6)

18 + 6 = 2x

24 = 2x

x= 12  

We can then plug in for 5x and 3x

as BD = 5x-18 = 3x+6

5(12) = 60 -18 = 42 and 3(12) =36+6 = 42

To find line BD = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+6= 42

3x = 42-6

3x = 36

x = 12

5x-18 = 60

5x = 60- 18

5x = 42

x=12
