You divide each side of the equation by 4 .
Then you have

<em>x = 15/4</em> or 3.75

Yeah AL2006 was right you have to divide 4 on both sides because when a variable is connected to a number like that with no sign between them it is multiplication and the opposite of multiplication is division and 4 divided by 4 cancels out because it is 0. 15 divided by 4 is 3.75.

ANSWER

$|BC|=12\sqrt{2}\: ft$

EXPLANATION

The given right triangle is an isosceles triangle because

$m \: < \: B = 45 \degree = m \: < \: C$
This implies that,

$|AB|=12ft=|AC|$

From the Pythagoras Theorem,

$|BC|^2=|AB|^2+|AC|^2$

$|BC|^2= {12}^{2} + {12}^{2}$

$|BC|^2=2 \times {12}^{2}$

$|BC| = \sqrt{ {12}^{2} \times 2 }$

$|BC|=12\sqrt{2}\: ft$
