Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the value of x, create a proportion. A proportion is two equal ratios for similar figures. The two triangles are similar because they are the same shape but not the same size. Create ratios between corresponding sides of figures.

To solve for x, cross multiply:
12(x+4) = (2x+1)(8)
12x + 48 = 16x + 8
48 = 4x + 8
40 = 4x
10 = x
Answer:
27
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 40 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The hash marks tell you the triangles are similar and the smaller one is 1/2 the size of the larger one. Then x is half the length of the corresponding segment marked 81.
x = 81/2
x = 40 1/2
___
You may have to write it as 81/2 or as 40.5. Sometimes the answer needs to be in a particular form.
The sentence "15% of 4x is 20 less than x"
translates to 0.15 • (4x) = x – 20
Solving that…
0.15(4x) = x - 20 multiplipy 0.15•4
0.6x = x - 20 subtract x from both sides
-0.4x = - 20 divide both sides by -0.4
x = 50

<h2>Explanation:</h2>
The stairway to a cellar has a slope of -4/3, that is:

On the other hand, the cellar is 2m below the ground. In other words:

So this can be modeled by the equation of the line:

The line has a y-intercept at point (0, -2) and as x increases 3 units y decreases 4 units. So:

Finally, let's draw a line that passes through:

By using graphing tool, we get the line shown below.
