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

X=36. You just make the equation: X+9=45. Then you subtract 9 from 45 like this:                                                    -9   -9. That gives you 36

Choosy Chocolates sold chewy squares and chocolate stars at a ratio of 3 to 8. 45 more chocolate stars were sold than chewy squa
masya89 [10]
So 45 more chocolate stars were sold compared to chewy squares, which makes it a ratio of 3:8, hence we can assume that (45÷5=9) is the amount sold for each ratio.

If you multiply 9 by (3+8=11), you will get 99.
