x + 3 =
x + 1
multiply through by 6 ( the LCM of 2 and 3 ) to clear the fractions
3x + 18 = 4x + 6 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
18 = x + 6 ( subtract 6 from both sides )
12 = x
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
x² + 12² = 13², so
x² + 144 = 169 ( subtract 144 from both sides )
x² = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = = 5
