Answer:

x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 2(bx - 5) = 16 ← substitute b = 3

- 2(3x - 5) = 16 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

3x - 5 = - 8 ( add 5 to both sides )

3x = - 3 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = - 1

Lerok [7]

Answer:

a. 28.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the theorem of similarity, the following equation can be generated:

$\frac{x}{12} = \frac{25 + 35}{25}$

Solve for x

$\frac{x}{12} = \frac{60}{25}$

Cross multiply

$x*25 = 60*12$

$25x = 720$

Divide both sides by 25

x = 28.8
