Answer:

  x = 2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding sides of the similar triangles are proportional:

  x/(x+3) = 8/18

  18x = 8(x +3) . . . . . multiply by 18(x+3)

  10x = 24 . . . . . . . . subtract 8x

  x = 2.4 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 10

Angle B= 45 degrees
Angle A = 45 degrees

A and B are congruent since they are alternate exterior angles

5x = 2x +36
3x=36
X=12
B)
2x12+21 = 45
A)

The product of two numbers is -30, but their sum is -13. What are these two numbers?
Nata [24]
<h3>Answer:  -15 and 2</h3>

You find this through trial and error.

A much more efficient way is to solve x^2-13x-30 = 0 using the quadratic formula. You'll find the two solutions to be x = 15 and x = -2

Going from those solutions, we get x-15 = 0 and x+2 = 0 which then turn into (x-15)(x+2) = 0 through the zero product property.
