The two triangles are similar. When two figures are similar, the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal. We use this fact in order to calculate the height of the bigger triangle. We do as follows:

QP / SL = MN / SL+SR
25 / SL = 35 / SL + 13
SL = 32.5

Area = height x base / 2
Area = SL x MN / 2
Area = 32.5 x 35 / 2 = 568.75

Take away 1 from either side so the equation becomes 63=3x then divide both sides by 3 so it becomes 21=x which is your answer (option A)

Find the x and y intercepts and graph the line . Your x and y intercepts just be written as a point

ahrayia [7]

I think it would be y= 0 and x=5 now if it says the intercepts could not be 0 then it would be a different answer :)
