What is the value of x

Mathematics
1 answer:
9966 [12]3 years ago
3 0

ANSWER

x=27

EXPLANATION

The two triangles are similar so the corresponding sides are equal.

\frac{x}{x +1 8}  =  \frac{39}{39 + 26}

\frac{x}{x +1 8}  =  \frac{39}{65}

Cross multiply to get;

65x = 39(x  + 18)

Expand:

65x=39x+702

Group similar terms:

65x-39x=702

Simplify

26x=102

Divide both sides by 26,

x=702/26

x=27

Solve the system using substitution.
miv72 [106K]

Substitution method is one of the ways to solve this system.

-5x+y=4 and 4x-4y=16.

First we will divide the second equation with number 4 and get

x-y=4 => x=y+4 than we will replace x in the first equation

-5(y+4)+y=4 => -5y-20+y=4 => -4y=4+20 => -4y=24 => y=-6

x-(-6))=4 => x+6=4 => x=4-6=-2    (x,y)=(-2,-6)

Good luck!!!
