Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles shown are vertical angles

Vertical angles are congruent hence 8x + 36 = 5x + 60

( Notice that we just created an equation that we can use to solve for x )

We now solve for x algebraically

8x + 36 = 5x + 60

Step 1: Subtract 5x from both sides

8x - 5x + 36 = 5x - 5x + 60

Outcome: 3x + 36 = 60

Step 2: Subtract 36 from both sides

3x + 36 - 36 = 60 - 36

Outcome: 3x = 24

Step 3: Divide both sides by 3

3x/3 = 24/3

Outcome: x = 8

: 11 = 1 /3 : 6<br><br> plz help

GenaCL600 [577]

<h3>Let the number be x</h3>

$x:11 = \frac{1}{3} :6$

Divide the numbers

$\frac{x}{11} = \frac{ \frac{1}{3} }{6} \\ \frac{x}{11} = \frac{1}{18}$

Multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators

$11 \times \frac{x}{11} = 11 \times \frac{1}{18}$

Cancel multiplied terms that are in the denominator

$x = 11 \times \frac{1}{18}$

Multiply the numbers

$x = \frac{11}{18}$
