The value of x is equal to 14.
 
Since the bottom side is equal to 3 of the small triangle and the side of the larger triangle is equal to 9, that means that it was dilated by a factor of 3, since 3 * 3 = 9
So, the other side of 5, of the smaller triangle needs to be also be dilated by a factor of 3, so the new side is 15.
The larger triangle tells us that the side is x + 1, but we know that it is equal to 15. Since they are the same, we make them equal and solve for x
So, 15 = x + 1
We subtract 1 to isolate x and we get
14 = x
So, x is equals to 14.
I hope this helps.
YOU'RE WELCOME :D

Step-by-step explanation:

angle J is also 67 deg since the triangle is an isosceles triangle

angle T is 67 deg since the 2 triangles are congruent

angle G = 180 - 2x67 = 46 deg

ST is 5cm

The temperature of earth may be measured either by thermometers on the ground, which is an accurate but tedious method, or by se
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Analysis of variance (ANOVA) is the most accurate to estimate the difference

Step-by-step explanation:

Analysis of variance (ANOVA) is the best statistical method that can be used to determine the systematic difference between the mean values of two given set of population in any random experiment

In this case the two set of populations would be the one in which temperature is measured by thermometers on ground and sensor mounted in a space satellite.

4(2x+8)=10x+2-2x+30 what is x?
Anastaziya [24]

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4(2x+8)=10x+2−2x+30

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4(2x+8)=10x+2−2x+30

(4)(2x)+(4)(8)=10x+2+−2x+30(Distribute)

8x+32=10x+2+−2x+30

8x+32=(10x+−2x)+(2+30)(Combine Like Terms)

8x+32=8x+32

8x+32=8x+32

Step 2: Subtract 8x from both sides.

8x+32−8x=8x+32−8x

32=32

Step 3: Subtract 32 from both sides.

32−32=32−32

0=0

Answer:

All real numbers are solutions.
