Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Δ TSU and Δ TRV are similar , thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
= 
, substitute values
= 
= 
( cross- multiply )
3x = x + 16 ( subtract x from both sides )
2x = 16 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 8

Answer:
<h3>
44</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
z - some integer
2z - first given even integer (the smaller one)
2z+2 - even integer consecutive to 2z (the larger one)
2(2z) - twice the smaller number
2(2z) - 40 - the number 40 less than twice the smaller number
2(2z) - 40 = 2z + 2
4z - 40 = 2z + 2
2z = 42
2z+2 = 42+2 = 44
check:
2(2z)-40 = 2(42)-40 = 84-40 = 44
