X + x - 17 = 35
2x - 17 = 35
+ 17
2x = 52
÷ 2
x = 26 (larger number)

35 - 26 = 9 (smaller number)

What is the value of x

goblinko [34]

Answer:

52/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use basic Thales therom,

$\frac{3x}{4x}=\frac{3x+7}{5x-8}\\\\\frac{3}{4}=\frac{3x+7}{5x-8}\\$

Cross multiply,

3*(5x-8)=4*(3x+7)

3*5x - 3*8 = 4*3x + 4*7

15x - 24 = 12x +28

Add 24 to both sides

15x = 12x + 28 + 24

15x = 12x + 52

Subtract 12x from both sides

15x-12x =52

3x = 52

Divide both sides by 3

x = 52/3
