Answer:

A. x = 4; B. x = 6; y = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The corresponding sides of similar figures are proportional to each other.

A. Rectangles

x/2 =16/8         Multiply each side by 2

  x = 2 × 16/8

  x =4

B. Triangles

x/18 = 4/12     Multiply each side by 12

    x = 18 × 4/12

    x = 6

y/8 = 12/4     Multiply each side by 8

  y = 8 × 12/4

  y = 24

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

The answer to your question is  x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

                                       \frac{2}{7} x = 6

- Multiply both sides by 7

                                        \frac{(2)(7)x}{7} = 6(7)

- Simplify

                                        2x = 42

- Divide both sides by 2

                                         \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{42}{2}

- Simplify

                                         x = 21

Solve for m 13x - 10<br> M<br> N<br> 7x - 10
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Arc LM = 13x - 10

Arc MN = 7x - 10

Required:

Solve for x

Solution:

Recall: half a circle = 180°

Therefore,

Arc LM + Arc MN = 180°

13x - 10 + 7x - 10 = 180

Add like terms

20x - 20 = 180

20x - 20 + 20 = 180 + 20

20x = 200

20x/20 = 200/20

x = 10
