Answer:

A: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Our equation is 5x+12=6(x+1)

Our possible numbers are 6, 5, 24, or 7.

To figure this out you start putting the possible numbers in place of x so we'll start off using 6:

5*6+12=6(6+1).

5*6=30. 30+12=42. 6+1=7, 6*7=42.

This equals the same on both sides.

Next we'll go to 5:

5*5+12=6(5+1)

5*5=25, 25+12=37. 5+1=6, 6*6=36.

This doesn't equal the same amount on both sides.

Next is 24:

5*24+12=6(24+1)

5*24=120, 120+12=132. 24+1=25, 6*25=150

This doesn't equal the same amount.

Next is 7:

5*7+12=6(7+1)

5*7=35, 35+12=47. 7+1=8, 6*8=48.

This doesn't equal.

The only number that equals the same amount on both sides is A:6

26 inches is how many yards
AlekseyPX

1 yard = 36 inches

The fraction  (1 yard / 36 inches) has a numerator and denominator
that are equal.  So the fraction is equal to ' 1 ', and we can multiply
(26 inches) by it without changing any value.  That'll change the units
of the '26 inches' to 'yards', which is exactly what we need.

(26 inches) x (1 yard/36 inches) = (26/36) yard

                                                 That's  13/18 yard, or  0.7222... yard.

Please help me I need hlp
MatroZZZ [7]
H = 27 m. Since these are scales of each other, you can solve for h by creating a ratio of the two lengths. Divide 36 by 4 to find the scale for the tree. 36/4 = 9. This means that the large triangle is 9 times larger than the small one. Now to find h, multiply the height of the small triangle by the scale. 3 x 9 = 27. This means the height, h, of the large triangle is 27 m. You can check this by dividing the length of each triangle by their height. If they are the same number, the scale is correct. 36/27 = 1.33, 4/3 = 1.33 ✅
