Hello Alondra,
To solve this problem, you have to write a proportion using the ratios formed by the similar triangles.
Or proportion can be:
x/(x+2) = 10/15
Cross multiply to solve it:
10x + 20 = 15x
20 = 5x
4 = x
The value of x is 4.
I hope this helps,

X = 7 / sin(45)
x = 7 / sqrt(2)/2
x = 7 sqrt(2)
You have to start by using the distributive property. So you take the number next to the parentheses which is “8” and you multiply it with “2x”. This gives you “16x”. Then you multiply “8” with “3” and that gives you “24”. You now have the equation “16x + 24 = 48”.
The next step is to subtract “24” with “48”. This leaves you with “24”. Then you now have “16x = 24” as your new equation. The last step is to divide “16x” with “16”, this cancels it out with itself. Then you divide “24” with “16” and you get 1.5. So “X” equals 1.5 or you can convert it into a fraction witch gives you “3/4”.

If (y-1) is a factor of f(y), f(y)=0 when y=1. So if you find that f(1)=0, then (y-1) is a factor of f(y).
f(y)=y^3-9y^2+10y+5
f(1)=1-9+10+5=7
Since f(1)=7, (y-1) is not a factor.
