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

Which equation has infinitely many solutions?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

The second option (5x+14-4x=23+x-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

For an equation to have infinitely many solutions each side must be exactly the same when simplified.

12+4x=6x+10-2x

Combine alike terms.

12+4x=4x+10

Subtract 4x from each side

12=10

This is not true so this equation has no solutions.

5x+14-4x=23+x-9

Combine alike terms

x+14=14+x

subtract x from each side

14=14

This is true so this equation has infinitely many solutions.

Hope this helps! If you have any questions on how I got my answer feel free to ask. Stay safe!
