It would be B because you would take amelias age and take two away since todd is five years younger to get the a-5.
hope this helps :)
Answer:
D
and it is correct because it is
The picture in the attached figure
we know that
In similar triangles. The ratio of the lengths of the sides CS and CB must be equal to the ratio of the lengths of sides CR and CA. CS / CB = CR / CA
which can also be written as,
CS / (CS + SB) = CR / (CR + RA)
CS*(CR+RA)=CR*(CS+RA)
CS=2x+1
SB=6x
CR=7.5
RA=18
(2x+1)*[7.5+18]=7.5*[2x+1+18]
(2x+1)*[25.5]=7.5*[2x+19]
(51x+25.5)=15x+142.5
51x-15x=142.5-25.5
36x=117
x=117/36
x=3.25
the answer is x=3.25
