You combined the x’s together then u wanna move all the x’s to one side then after that you would want to do the opposite of -7, so then you add 7 to 10 and then you would divide everything by 2 and get x=8.5
So firsty up, you need to have equal denominators IN order to do this equation.
1/3 and 5/12..
3x4=12
So the rule when changing denominators, you multiply 4 intop, so it will become 4/12, and 5/12 + 4/12 = 8/12, and,
8/12 + 1/12= 9/12 and 9/12 simplified is 3/4..
So the answer is 3/4.
Hope this helped.
The clear answer according to me would be
5a-8<24
Answer:
x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
The two triangles are similar since each triangle is the same shape of right triangle but different sizes. To find x, write a proportion between two equal ratios of side lengths.

Solve by cross multiplying.
28(3x) = 20(4x+2)
84x = 80x + 40
4x = 40
x=10
