So 8x+4+4x+8=15x-9

Combine like terms.

12x+12=15x-9

Add 9 to both sides.

12x+21=15x

Subtract 12 from both sides.

21=3x

Divide both sides by 3.

x=7

Now plug in 7 for x in 8x+4.

8(7)+4

56+4

=60

Answer:

$x=\frac{33}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ED is parallel to CA, the two triangles in the figure share all 3 angles and therefore must be similar. By definition, the corresponding sides of similar polygons are in a constant proportion.

Therefore, we have:

$\frac{11}{11+x}=\frac{14}{20},\\14(11+x)=20\cdot 11,\\11+x=\frac{20\cdot 11}{14},\\x=\frac{110}{7}-11=\boxed{\frac{33}{7}}$

Answer:

Yes, 500 texts.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you write out the equations, you can just set them up equal to each other and simplify.

A = .05x + 20

B = .07x + 10

.05x + 20 = .07x + 10 (subtract 10 from both sides)

.05x + 10 = .07x (subtract .05x from both sides)

10 = .02x (multiply both sides by 50

x = 500 texts
