Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Benjamin marble = x

Alvin marble = x - 12

Chloe marble = x/4

Total marble = 42

X + X - 12 + X/4 = 42

2X + X/4 = 42 + 12

2X + X/4 = 54

MULTIPLY EACH TERM BY 4

8X + X = 216

9X = 216

X = 216/9

X = 24

Chloe marble = X/4 = 24/4 = 6

What is the value of x? <br><br> Enter your answer in the box.
Svetlanka [38]

Answer: x = 3


Step-by-step explanation:

Note that this triangle has 3 congruent angles. Therefore, it is an equilateral triangle. So, the sides will also be congruent.

So it can be said that : 6x - 3 = 3x + 6

+3

6x = 3x +9

-3x

3x = 9

/3

x = 3

By replacing x with 3, we can prove that these expressions all equal 15.

6(3) -3 = 18 - 3 = 15 . 3(3) + 6 = 9 + 6 = 15  . 5(3) = 15

The triangles given below in the diagram are similar by; D: The SSS Similarity theorem.

<h3>How to interpret similar triangles?</h3>

From triangle similarity theorems, we know that;

If a segment is parallel to one side of a triangle and intersects the other two sides, then the triangle formed is similar to the original and the segment that divides the two sides it intersects is proportional.

Now, from the given diagram, we see the ratio of corresponding sides are congruent as;

45/30 = 54/36 = 36/24 = 1.5

Thus, the triangles are similar by SSS similarity theorem
