Madison lives between Anoa and Jamie as depicted on the line segment. The distance between Anoa's house and Madison's house is represented by 3x+2 miles, the distance between Madison's house and Jamie's house is represented by 3x+4 miles, and the distance between Anoa's house and Jamies house is represnted by 9x-3 miles. Find the value of x. Then find the distance between Madison's house and Jamie's house.

If we add the distance between Anoa's and Madison's house with the distance between Jamie's and Madison's house, then we get the total distance between Anoa's and Jamie's house.

(3x + 2) + (3x + 4) = 9x - 3

Let's add up the terms first

3x + 2 + 3x + 4 = 9x - 3

6x + 6 = 9x - 3

Let's move the variables to the right side by subtract 6x from both sides

6x + 6 = 9x - 3

-6x -6x

6 = 3x - 3

Add 3 to both sides

6 = 3x - 3

+3 +3

9 = 3x

Isolate the variable, x, by dividing both sides by the coefficient, 3.

9/3 = 3x/3

x = 3

Now we need to find the distance between Madison's and Jamie's house.

3x + 4

Plug in 3 in place of the x

3(3) + 4

9 + 4 = 13
