The value of x is equal to 14.
Since the bottom side is equal to 3 of the small triangle and the side of the larger triangle is equal to 9, that means that it was dilated by a factor of 3, since 3 * 3 = 9
So, the other side of 5, of the smaller triangle needs to be also be dilated by a factor of 3, so the new side is 15.
The larger triangle tells us that the side is x + 1, but we know that it is equal to 15. Since they are the same, we make them equal and solve for x
So, 15 = x + 1
We subtract 1 to isolate x and we get
14 = x
So, x is equals to 14.
I hope this helps.

Answer:
1 1/8 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
As the sails are similar, corresponding sides are in the same ratio, so we have the equation
:24/3 = 9/b where b = base of the souvenir boat.
Cross multiply:
24b = 9*3
b = 27/24
= 1 1/8 inches.
Answer:
1. -15x + 60 <= 105 2. 14x + 11 <= - 31
Step-by-step explanation:
1. x> = - 3
2. x <= - 3
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable
You need to find x first but it has to be x×x-4x
0 it is at ocean level so elevation is zero
