If the triangles are similar, the proportion of the legs on the left to the legs on the right will be equal. This proportion would look like:
(You needed to combine the orange segment and the yellow segment to find the total length of the large triangle).
Now, cross multiply and solve for x:
28x+14=30x
<em>*Subtract 28x from both sides to isolate the variable*</em>
14=2x
<em>*Divide both sides by 2*</em>
7=x
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
Ladonna: a + c + b
Step-by-step explanation:
-The commutative property in addition states that the order of arrangement of the integers to be added has no effect on their sum such that:
-Since the alphabet follows the order a,b, c....
Only Ladonna rearranged to change this order to show the commutative property.
-Hence, Ladonna wrote the expression correctly.
*The commutative property should not be confused with the associative property.
-The latter allows you to change the order and terms within the closed parentheses while retaining the answer.
