Hello Alondra,
To solve this problem, you have to write a proportion using the ratios formed by the similar triangles.
Or proportion can be:
x/(x+2) = 10/15
Cross multiply to solve it:
10x + 20 = 15x
20 = 5x
4 = x
The value of x is 4.
I hope this helps,

Answer:
The Missing Length = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation: side length x side length = area
- This means that if you divide the area by one of the side lengths, you'll find the other
1. Convert the numbers into decimals
- 8 3/4 - 8.75 (area)
- 1 1/4 = 1.25 (side length)
2. Divide the <u>area</u> by the <u>side length</u>
<u></u>
<u>7</u> is the answer.
(12 x 2) - 5 because twice as many means to multiply by 2. fewer means to subtract.
The answer is b. The paired chromosomes overlap of dna
