What is the value of x?

Mathematics

Answer: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use what is called geometric mean to solve this.

The hypotenuse of this triangle is split into two sections. One section corresponds to/equal to the altitude which is our "X", which corresponds to/equal to the second section.

You find "X" by using geometric mean and the proportion:

16/X=X/9

Then cross multiply to get 16 x 9= 144

then 144=x²

Solve for X.

X=12

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY THE ANSWER FOR THIS IS 4N+15. THIS IS 10 MINUTES PAST DUE!!! TAKE 20 POINTS​
Oduvanchick [21]
The first part of the expression 4n is because n is the amount of almond trees and to find the walnut trees, you need to multiply the number of almond trees (n) by for (4n). you would also add 15 because it says he has 15 more than 4 times as many walnut trees.

so here's the breakdown of the sentence:

Daquan has 15 more than (15 +) 4 times as many (4n) walnut trees in his orchard as he has almond trees.

hopefully this makes sense! have a nice day
