x =  \frac{2}{3} x - 5

Collect like terms and simplify

x -  \frac{2}{3} x =  - 5 \\  \frac{1}{3} x =  - 5

Cross multiply

x =  - 5 \times 3 \\  \\ x =  - 15

Does anyone know this?
Neko [114]

"c" is the hypotenuse of the largest triangle, and "a" is that triangle's shortest side. Thus the ratio is

... (longest side)/(shortest side)


Since all the triangles in the figure are similar, to complete the proportion, you need to recognize the triangle that "a" is the longest side of, then find the shortest side of that triangle.


"a" is the longest side (hypotenuse) of the smallest triangle. The shortest side of that triangle is "r". So, your proportion is ...

... c/a = a/r


The appropriate choice is the 2nd one, ...

... r

(×+2) +(4×-122)=180 need help with this problem
alina1380 [7]
So first you need to open the brackets, so it would be x+2+4x-122=180. Then we can add the 4x and the other x to make 5x, and then by doing 2-122 we get -120. This gives us the equation 5x-120=180. We then isolate the variable by moving the -120 to the other side of the equation and becoming a positive, so it would look like 5x=180+120. Then, we have 5x=300. 300 divides by 5 is 60 making X=60. Hope this helps!
