Step-by-step explanation:
36 : x :: x : 16
16 x 36 = x2
576 = x2
Taking square root on both sides
24 = x

Answer:
0 = a
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing to do is subtract 5 from both sides.
a + 5 = 5a + 5
- 5 - 5
The 5's cancel out.
Now we have a + 0 = 5a
You next subtract the a from both sides.
a + 0 = 5a
-a -a
0 = 4a
Lastly would to get a by itself so then we divide 4 from both sides
0 = 4a
_ _
4 4
0 = a
9514 1404 393
Answer:
3) x = 9
4) x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
3) The two short segments are indicated as having a sum equal to the long segment.
(x +2) +(-5 +x) = 15
2x = 18 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 3
x = 9 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
(This makes the segments be 9+2 = 11 and -5+9 = 4, which total 15.)
__
4) Same deal.
3x +3 = 4x
3 = x . . . . . . . . subtract 3x
(This makes the segments be 3(3) = 9 and 4(3) = 12, where 9+3=12.)
