Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Your required answer is option B.

Here,

Given,

The figure is an equilateral triangle with, side (7x+9) and (x+27).

By the defination of equilateral triangle we have,

All sides of equilateral triangle are equal.

So,

$( 7x+ 9) = x + 27$

Simplify them to get answer.

$7x - x = 27 - 9$

$6x = 18$

$x = \frac{18}{6}$

Therefore the value of x is 3.
