Question

Solve for x. 9 4 13.5 x+4

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The parallel lines divide the transversals into proportional segments, that is

$\frac{x+4}{13.5}$ = $\frac{4}{9}$ ( cross- multiply )

9(x + 4) = 54 ( divide both sides by 9 )

x + 4 = 6 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

x = 2
