Since ΔABC ~ ΔEDC, ∠B = ∠D.
Since both triangles appear to be similar, the corresponding angles are the same, and corresponding sides are the same or have the same ratio.
We can write an equation to resemble the problem:
8x + 16 = 120
Solve for x.
8x + 16 = 120
~Subtract 16 to both sides
8x + 16 - 16 = 120 - 16
~Simplify
8x = 104
~Divide 8 to both sides
8x/8 = 104/8
~Simplify
x = 13
Therefore, the answer is 13.
Best of Luck!

The average monthly expenses for Bill's utilities is $266.67.
It is given in the question that:-
Expenditure in December by Bill = $ 234.45
Expenditure in January by Bill = $ 281.23
Expenditure in February by Bill = $ 284.33
We have to find the average monthly expenses for Bill's utilities.
We know that,
Average monthly expense for utilities = (Expenditure in December + Expenditure in January + Expenditure in February)/3
Hence, using the data given in the question, we can write,
Average monthly expense for utilities = (234.45 + 281.23 + 284.33)/3
Average monthly expense for utilities = 800.01/3 = $266.67

Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
If the value of x varies directly as the value of y we can say they are directly proportional. This implies that when y increases x will increase too, and when y decreases x will also decrease.
If x=16 when y=3/4 we can write their relation as:
x/y = 16/(3/4) = 16*(4/3) = 64/3
So, for every value of y, the ratio x/y must maintain equal to 64/3 because both values are proportional.
Now we can see what happens to x when y varies. If y=3/8:
x/(3/8) = 64/3
Multiply both sides by 3/8 to eliminate the 3/8 in the denominator.
x/(3/8) * (3/8) = (64/3) * (3/8)
See that we have a 3 multiplying and another dividing, we can eliminate them.
x = 64/8
x = 8
So, if y decreases to 3/8 x will decrease to 8. Notice that y is decreasing in a half as 3/8 is the half of 3/4, and x is also decreasing in a half from 16 to 8, what makes sense.
