X = 10
The triangles are similar by SAS, so we can set up a proportion of their sides.
9/(33-9) = 12/(3x+2)
9/24 = 12/3x+2
Reduce
3/8 = 12/3x+2
Cross multiply
3(3x+2) = 12*8
Distribute and multiply
9x + 6 = 96
Subtract 6
9x = 90
Divide by 9
x = 10
Check:
9/24 = 12/3x+2
9/24 = 12/3*10 + 2
9/24 = 12/30 + 2
9/24 = 12/32
3/8 = 3/8 :)

Answer:
6x * 1/2 - 3 (* means multiplying)
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, you are using communitive property and so you are just changing the problem to an equal situation.
Answer:
m=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
m - 7 = -10
Ok so,
in order to get m by itself you just need to do the opposite of -7 which is +7 so you have to add 7 to both sides. On the left, both of the 7's cancel out and on the right -10 + 7 = -3. So, now it should look like this.
m=-3
To check you just need to plug in -3 into the question
Hope this helps! Have a good day
