Question

Refer to the diagram shown.

Answer 1

Answer:

X=5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+3= 4x-7

-4x      -4x

-2x +3 = - 7

-3            -3

-2x      =    -10

divide -10 by -2x

which would give you your answer X=5

Answer 2

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

According to SSS, RPS and RPQ should be similar angles. Since the length RP is the same, then RQP and RSP should be similar too. Therefore PRS and PRQ should be similar too. Since QP and RS are the same (7) then QR and PS needs to be same in length too.

2x+3 = 4x-7

10 = 2x

x=5
