Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello,

as this is a parallelogram we can write that BE = DE so

15x + 4 = 9x + 6

<=> 15x - 9x + 4 = 6

<=> 6x = 6 - 4 = 2

<=> x = 2/6 = 1/3

so BE = DE = 15/3+4=5+4=9

so BD = BE + DE = 9 + 9 = 18

the correct answer is 18

hope this helps

If two similar triangles have side lengths 3cm and 7cm then we can determine that the scale factor for the lengths is: 7/3

Now, we have to work out the area scale factor !

This is simple, since area is given in cm² then all we have to do is square our original scale factor!

So,

7/3² = 49/9

So, we can say that the ratio of the area would be:

x : 49/9x

Hope this helps! <3
