Two matrices are the same if the entries of the two matrices in the same row and column are the equal.
For this equation to hold, we need
5x - 8 = 2
5x = 10
x = 2
Set up as for portion with X as unknown number of gray cats. So 1/3=x/9. Cross multiply. 3X=9. Divide both sides by 3. X=3.
A2 + b2 = c2
