By using definition of proportionality and Pythagorean theorem, the values of x and y associated with the geometrical system formed by two right triangles are 36 / 5 and 104 / 5, respectively.

<h3>How to analyze a geometrical system formed by two proportional right triangles</h3>

Herein we find a picture of a geometrical system formed by two proportional right triangles with two variables: {x, y} These variables can be found by using the definition of proportionality and the Pythagorean theorem:

5 / 8 = 12 / (12 + x) = 13 / y

Then, we proceed to solve the system formed by two equations:

(12 + x) / 12 = 8 / 5

12 + x = 96 / 5

x = 96 / 5 - 12

x = 36 / 5

y / 13 = 8 / 5

y = 104 / 5

By using definition of proportionality and Pythagorean theorem, the values of x and y associated with the geometrical system formed by two right triangles are 36 / 5 and 104 / 5, respectively.

Solve for x.<br> 8(5 + x) = 11(9 + x)<br> Answer as a fraction.
7nadin3 [17]

distribute the 8 to the 5 and x. then distribute 11 to 9 and x.

(40+8x)=(99+11x)

-11x -11x

-3x+40=99

-40 -40

-3x= 59

divide three on both sides

x=59/-3

final answer x=-59/3
