Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

If the two triangles are similar, you can set up similar ratios and set them equal to each other. For example, you can set up an equation as follows:

first rise/first run = second rise/second run

OR

first rise/second rise = first run/second run

There are many takes on this method. I chose to set it up as follows:

24/27 = 16/x

Now, simply solve for x by cross multiplying!

              12 ⇒ A. statement is true.

***When x=-5⇒2*(-5)²+6*(-5)-8=12⇒B. statement is true.

***2x²+6x-8 can also be written as (x+5)*(2x-4)+12 so (x+5) is a factor of 2x²+6x-8⇒C. statement is true.

***When x=5⇒2*5²+6*5-8=72 is not 12⇒D. statement is not true
