Write down the expression for the length of the broken line ABCD, if AB = x, BC is 2 times more than AB, and CD is 6cm less than AB.

The expression for the length in this task will have the sum of all three segments.

Then if BC is twice as large as AB, then it is equal to 2x.

And if the СD is less than AB by 6 cm, then it is equal to x – 6.

And then, now that we know all three sides, we can write down their sum: x + 2x + x – 6.

Reduce the equation by reducing the same terms: 3x – 6.

Answer: the equation for the length of a straight line will be like this: 3x – 6.
