Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
In similar triangles, corresponding elements are proportional. Then we get,
(2x + 1)/(x-1) = 10/4
4(2x +1) = 10(x-1)
8x + 4 = 10x - 10
8x = 10x - 14
2x = 14
x = 7

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that ;
Carlos needs 1.7 meters of wire for one project &
0.8 meters of wire for another project
we are to shade the model to represent the total amount of wire Carlos needs .
NOW;
For both projects ; Carlos needs ( 1.7 + 0.8) meters of wire = 2.5 meters of wire
In the attached files below. the first picture shows the diagram attached to the question and the second one shows the shading of the model which represent the total amount of wire Carlos needs.

Given :
On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 10 senior tickets and 1 child ticket for a total of $85 .
The school took in $75 on the second day by selling 5 senior citizens tickets and 7 child tickets.
To Find :
The price of a senior ticket and the price of a child ticket.
Solution :
Let, price of senior ticket and child ticket is x and y respectively.
Mathematical equation of condition 1 :
10x + y = 85 ...1)
Mathematical equation of condition 2 :
5x + 7y = 75 ...2)
Solving equation 1 and 2, we get :
2(2) - (1) :
2( 5x + 7y - 75 ) - ( 10x +y - 85 ) = 0
10x + 14y - 150 - 10x - y + 85 = 0
13y = 65
y = 5
10x - 5 = 85
x = 8
Therefore, price of a senior ticket and the price of a child ticket $8 and $5.
Hence, this is the required solution.
3x - 10 = x + 4 <== ur equation
three times a number.....3x...with the x representing the number
ten less....3x - 10
is the same as...means =
that number (x) increased by 4....x + 4
so we have 3x - 10 = x + 4...
3x - 10 = x + 4
3x - x = 4 + 10
2x = 14
x = 14/2
x = 7....and that number is 7
