Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles are similar, thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{2x+1}{x+4}$ = $\frac{40}{25}$ = $\frac{8}{5}$ ( cross- multiply )

5(2x + 1) = 8(x + 4) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides )

10x + 5 = 8x + 32 ( subtract 8x from both sides )

2x + 5 = 32 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

2x = 27 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 13.5 → d

Ten times the square of a non-zero number is equal to fifty times the number. what is the number?

lys-0071 [83]

10x^2 = 50x.....subtract 50x from both sides
10x^2 - 50x = 0...factor
10x(x - 5) = 0

10x = 0
x = 0 <== this one is eliminated because x cannot be zero

x - 5 = 0
x = 5 <== ur answer

Answer:

8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

so there is something called Pythagorean thereon and it states that a^2+b^2=c^2

and 6 is either a or b

and c is ten so

6^2+b^2=10^2

36+b^2=100

b^2=64

here you need to find the square root in order to delete the power so

$\sqrt{b} =\sqrt{64\\\\$

b=8

x=8
