Answer:

5x-(x+3)=(3x+6)-5

We move all terms to the left:

5x-(x+3)-((3x+6)-5)=0

We get rid of parentheses

5x-x-((3x+6)-5)-3=0

We calculate terms in parentheses: -((3x+6)-5), so:

(3x+6)-5

We get rid of parentheses

3x+6-5

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

3x+1

Back to the equation:

-(3x+1)

add all the numbers together, and all the variables

4x-(3x+1)-3=0

get rid of parentheses

4x-3x-1-3=0

add all the numbers together, and all the variables

x-4=0

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

x=4

Answer:

$\overline {DE} \parallel \overline{AB}$ because $\frac{EC}{DC} = \frac{AC}{BC}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Theorem of Thales and definition of proportionality, $\overline {DE} \parallel \overline{AB}$ if and only if $\frac{EC}{DC} = \frac{AC}{BC}$ . If we know that $EC = 15\,cm$ , $DC = 20\,cm$ , $BC = 36\,cm$ and $AC = 27\,cm$ , then we have the following result:
