1) Sketching it
Since the line segment AD = 10x -5 and AC= 3x +1 and CD= 15
According to the Segment Addition postulate we can write:
3x+1+15=10x-5 <em>Combining like terms</em>
3x +16 = 10x -5 <em>Subtract 16 from both sides</em>
3x = 10x-5-16 Subtract 10x from both sides
3x-10x =-21
-7x = -21
7x=21 <em>Dividing by 7 on both sides</em>
x=3
A. The unknown variable is the area of the smaller rectangle.
B. 3/7=x/84

C. No. 12 does not equal 15.
You have to divide both 9 & 6 by their greatest common factor which is 3 so the answer is 3

Answer:
Right Triangles and the Pythagorean Theorem
1.The Pythagorean Theorem, a2+b2=c2, a 2 + b 2 = c 2 , can be used to find the length of any side of a right triangle.
2.The side opposite the right angle is called the hypotenuse (side c in the figure).
Answer: it is c
Step-by-step explanation:
It has two of the same domain
