The answer is 3 because 4x-x=3x
Answer: The answer is x = 6 units.
Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached diagram
The diagram in the question shows two triangles placed on each other and for convenience sake has been labelled ABDCE. Triangle ABC is a right angled triangle, and so is triangle ADE. From the marks on the lines, we can infer that line AD is equal in measurement to line DB. Also line AE is equal in measurement to line EC.
Therefore we can see the similarity in both triangles, if AD and AE equals DB and EC, then it follows that DE equals BC.
Hence if AD = DB and
AE = EC, and
DE = BC
Then, x - 3 = ½x
(½x can also be expressed as x/2)
x - 3 = x/2
By cross multiplication we now have
2(x - 3) = x
2x - 6 = x
By collecting like terms we now have
2x - x = 6
x = 6
(22 + 15.50 + 2.75) 15
(22 * 15) + (15.50 * 15) + (2.75 * 15)
Using Pythagorean theorem, the answer should be 8.7ft
Time out = d/so = d/523
time back = d/sb = d/415
t = time out + time back
11 = d/523 + d/415 find common deneminator
11 = (415d + 523d)/(523*415)
11*523*415 = 415d + 523d
2387495 = 938d
d = 2545 miles
