What is the value of x? ​

Mathematics
1 answer:
mr Goodwill [35]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar

The two triangles

1) the one making up the peak of the large triangle

2)the large triangle  

are similar. That is because the 2 bases are parallel and corresponding angles are equal. The third angle at the peak is common. So by AAA they are similar.

Proportion

Therefore the sides are in proportion.

5/40 = 3/(2x + 10)

Solution

Cross multiply

5*(2x + 10) = 40*3

Remove the brackets on the left. Combine the right.

10x + 50 = 120          

Subtract 50 from both sides

10x + 50 - 50 = 120 - 50

10x = 70

Divide by 10

10x/10 = 70/10

x = 7

PLEASE HELP!!! VERY EASY MATH EXPLINATION NEEDED!!!
Mrrafil [7]
Answer:

It’s D, 18 cuts

Step-by-step explanation:

She cut a 6 yard long ribbon into 1/3 yard pieces so you would have to divide to get the answer and the steps to dividing is

Stay the same, change the sign, flip it
so the 6 would stay the same, you would change the division sign to multiplication because division is the opposite of multiplication, and you would flip the 1/3 into 3/1 so

6 x 3/1 would be 18/1 which is just 18
