Answer:x =8.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle ABG is similar to triangle DBE. This means that the ratio of the length of each side of ∆ABG to the length of the corresponding side of ∆DBE is constant. Therefore,

AB/DB = BG/BE = AG/DE

AB = 11

BG = 10 + x

Therefore,

11/6 = (x + 10)/10

Cross multiplying, it becomes

6(x + 10) = 11 × 10

6x + 60 = 110

Subtracting 60 from left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes

6x + 60 - 60 = 110 - 60

6x = 50

Dividing the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by 6, it becomes

6x/6 = 50/6

x = 8.3 rounded up to the nearest tenth

Select the correct answer.

wariber [46]

Answer:

~Senpi boi here~

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply all terms by x and cancel:

x+2x+1=1x

3x+1=x(Simplify both sides of the equation)

3x+1−x=x−x(Subtract x from both sides)

2x+1=0

2x+1−1=0−1(Subtract 1 from both sides)

2x=−1

−1

(Divide both sides by 2)

−1

Check answers. (Plug them in to make sure they work.)

−1

(Works in original equation)

Answer:

x= −1/2

(Hope this helps!)
