now, let's notice those tickmarks on the sides.

the ones at the bottom, those two sides are equal.

the ones at the top-right, those two sides are also equal.

what does all that mean?

it means that, the segment in the triangle, the 2x-3 segment is really the midsegment of the triangle, and therefore, also parallel to the base of 18, and also therefore is half of that length.

\bf \textit{midsegment of a triangle}\\\\ m = \cfrac{b}{2}~~ \begin{cases} b=parallel~side\\ \qquad or~base\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ m=2x-3\\ b=18 \end{cases}\implies 2x-3=\cfrac{18}{2}\implies 2x-3=9 \\\\\\ 2x=12\implies x=\cfrac{12}{2}\implies x=6

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

3(4x-12) = 84

Divide each side by 3

3/3(4x-12) = 84/3

4x-12 =28

Add 12 to each side

4x-12+12 = 28+12

4x= 40

Divide each side by 4

4x/4 = 40/4

x = 10

Answer:

x = -26

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides by the lowest common multiple of 4 and 3, which is 12.

3(x+2) = 4(x+8)

3x + 6 = 4x + 32 --- distribute the 4 and 3

6 = x + 32 --- subtract 3x from both sides

-26 = x --- subtract 32 from both sides

x = -26
