Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a linear equation in one variable and has 1 solution
12x + 6 = 5x ( subtract 5x from both sides )
7x + 6 = 0 ( subtract 6 from both sides )
7x = - 6 ( divide both sides by 7 )
x = - ← 1 solution
Answer: 7.5
Form your proportion. Let x be the width of QRST.
Length of ABCD Length of QRST
----------------------- = -------------------------
Width of ABCD Width of QRST
8/5 = 12/x
Solve for x by cross-multiplying.
(8)(x) = (12)(5)
8x = 60
x = 7.5
