I suppose both triangles are similar.
The ratio of 2 sides in a triangle is the same ratio of the corresponding 2 sides in the second similar triangle.
Which means,
AB / AC = LM / LN
now we can substitute the given values in
5 / (x + 5) = 10 / (3x + 3)
Use the cross method to solve this.
10(x+5) = 5(3x+3)
10x + 50 = 15x + 15
50 - 15 = 15x - 10x
35 = 5x
X = 7
Now we know the value of x is calculate the length of AC
AC = 7 + 5
Therfore the answer is 12

Answer:

$\frac{1}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-\frac{12}{16} + \frac{11}{12}$

take lcm of the denominator

lcm=48

$\frac{-12*3 + 11*4}{48}$

$\frac{-36 + 44}{48}$

$\frac{8}{48}$

$\frac{1}{6}$

Answer: 5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Double the area to get 35. then think what two number multiply to get 35 that are also 2 apart. 7 x 5. So 7 is the height and 5 is the base.

Check answer: A = 1/2xbxh

A = 1/2 x 7 x 5

A = 1/2 x 35

A = 17.5 sq m

I need help fast! The measures of the angles of a triangle are shown in the figure below. Solve for x.

cluponka [151]

180-(64+71) = 45
8x-11 = 45
8x = 45+11
8x = 56
x = 56 / 8
x = 7
