Yuki888 [10]3 years ago

Answer:

I believe the answer is x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>3x</em> and<em> 4x-1 </em> are corresponding sides and so are <em>14</em> and <em>18</em>.

You cross multiply with the smaller triangle lengths at the top.

3x/(4x-1)= 14/18

Cross multiply to get

18(3x)= 14(4x-1)

54x=56x-14

Subtract 54x on the other side and add 14 to the other (or subtract 56x to the other side)

you get 14=2x and divide 14 by 2 to get x=7

Answer:

When you divide a positive number (such as 1,000) by a number greater than 1 (such as 5), the answer must be smaller than the number you started with. The answer must be smaller than 1,000. 2,000 is greater than 1,000, so it cannot be correct. The correct quotient is 1,000/5 = 200.
