Answer:
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Since they are similar triangles, their sides are proportional
12 : 15 :: 8 : x - 4
Product of extremes = Product of means
12 × ( x- 4 ) = 15 × 8
12x -48 = 120
12x = 120 + 48
12x = 168
x = 168/12
x = 14
1/4 is equivalent to 5/20
You can set them equal to each other so -3x+4=4x-10 and then you add 3x and 10 on both sides and get7x=14 and then divided both sides by 7 and get x = 2 and check by plugging in and you get -2 for y on both so solution is x=2
Answer:
rounding to the thousandths place, the answer is 0.714
Step-by-step explanation:
This can easily be looked up on google
2,400
20% of 3,000= 600
3,000 - 600= 2,400
