Answer: x=21

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x you must first combine you like terms on each side of the equal sign. So you problem will become 8x+1=22+7x. Then get your x on one side and your numbers on the other by taking the one away from the right side and 1 away from 22. Then take away 7 from the left side to cancel it out. Then take 7x away from 8x to leave you with x. making your answer x=21

Answer:

<h2>x = 21</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 1 + 5x = 7 + 15 + 7x <em>combine like terms</em>

(3x + 5x) + 1 = (7 + 15) + 7x

8x + 1 = 22 + 7x <em>subtract 1 from both sides</em>

8x = 21 + 7x <em>subtract 7x from both sides</em>

x = 21

The triangles are similar

hoa [83]

Answer:

Part 1) $x=16\ units$

Part 2) $x=23\ units$

Part 3) $AE=20\ units$

Part 4) $x= 6.25\ units$

Part 5) $x=26.67\ in$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) we know that

If two triangles are similar

then

the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

so

In this problem

$\frac{12}{3}=\frac{x}{4}\\\\3x=12*4\\ \\x=48/3\\ \\x=16\ units$

Part 2) we know that

If two triangles are similar

then

the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

so

In this problem

$\frac{36}{12}=\frac{39}{(x-10)}\\\\3(x-10)=39\\ \\x=(39/3)+10\\ \\x=23\ units$

Part 3) we know that

If two triangles are similar

then

the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

so

In this problem

$\frac{AB}{CD}=\frac{AE}{ED}$

substitute the values

$\frac{10}{4}=\frac{2x+10}{x+3}$

$2.5(x+3)=2x+10$

$2.5x+7.5=2x+10$

$2.5x-2x=10-7.5$

$0.5x=2.5$

$x=5\ units$

$AE=2x+10=2*5+10=20\ units$

Part 4) we know that

If two triangles are similar

then

the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

so

In this problem

$\frac{4}{5}=\frac{5}{x}\\ \\4x=5*5\\ \\ x=25/4\\ \\ x= 6.25\ units$

Part 5) we know that

If two triangles are similar

then

the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

so

In this problem

$\frac{30}{x}=\frac{45}{40}\\ \\45x=30*40\\ \\x=1,200/45\\ \\ x=26.67\ in$
