Use the left and right triangles. (the two smaller ones -- ACD and BCD)
By similar triangles ACD is similar to BCD
on the left AD/CD is one ratio
On the right CD/DB is the other. These two ratios are equal because they are corresponding parts.
AD / CD = CD / DB
AD = 3
DB = 12
CD = ??
Substitute.
3/CD = CD/12 Cross multiply
36 = CD^2
sqrt(36) = sqrt(CD^2)
CD = 6 <<<<==== Answer.
A <<<<====Answer.

Answer:
y=1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
17-4x = 1-4x+12-2x
17-4x = 13-6x | +4x
17 = 13-2x | -13
4 = -2x | :(-2)
-2 = x
