Answer:

145

Step-by-step explanation:

We will let x equal our unknown number. So:

(x + 5)/2 = 75

Now we can solve for x

We can first multiply both sides of the equation by 2. This will get rid of the fraction on the left side:

x + 5 = 75 * 2 ----->

x + 5 = 150

Next, subtract 5 from both sides:

x + 5 - 5 = 150 - 5 ----->

x = 145

The lengths of the sides of a triangle are 8, 15, and 17. if the longest side of a similar triangle is 51, what is the length of
Vlad1618 [11]
If the longest side on the similar triangle is 51 and the longest side of the first triangle is 17, then you divide 51 and 17.

51 / 17 = 3

So the similar triangle is 3 times as big.
To find the shortest side of the similar triangle, you multiply 8 and 3.

8 * 3 = 24

The length of the shortest side of the similar triangle is 24.

Hope this helps!
