Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

14=7(2x-4)

14/7=2x-4

2=2x-4

2x=2+4

2x=6

x=6/2

x=3

------------

14=7(2x-4)

14=14x-28

14x=14+28

14x=42

x=42/14

x=3

14=7(2x-4)\\2=2x-4\\2x=6\\x=3\\\\14=7(2x-4)\\14=14x-28\\14x=42\\x=3

I prefer the first method, because I don't do unnecessary multiplication and therefore operate on smaller numbers.

What’s the question mark
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

? = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangles are similar, then the only way I see this working is the sides measuring 63 and 54 are corresponding. The sides measuring 56 and 48 are corresponding. That leaves the sides measuring 35 and ? corresponding.

Set up a proportion.

63/54 = 35/?

63? = 54 * 35

63? = 1890

? = 30
