The two triangles are similar, what is the value of X?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gennadij [26K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both triangles are similar, you can make an equation 12/5x-2 = 16/6x. When you cross multiply you get 72x=80x-32. Then you transfer the 80x and you get -8x = -32. Then you divide by -8 and you get x=4.

REY [17]

Answer:

(an -a1)/d +1 = n

Step-by-step explanation:

Undo what is done to n, in reverse order. When evaluating this expression, you ...

  • subtract 1 from n
  • multiply the difference by d
  • add a1

When you undo these, you get ...

... an -a1 = d(n-1) . . . . . . subtract a1

... (an -a1)/d = n - 1 . . . . divide by d

... (an -a1)/d +1 = n . . . . add 1

_____

None of the offered answers has these parentheses, nor are they typeset in a way that would indicate the intent to divide (an -a1) by d. As given, none of the offered answers is correct.
