Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The total length of triangle is 40 in. The length of the right triangle is the total length divided by 2 which 40/2 = 20.

We have 2 right triangles. We can use the pythagorean theorem to solve for x.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + 20^2 = 25^2

x^2 + 400 = 625

- 400 - 400

x^2 = 225

x = 15

12(6x + 10) + x = 9x + 5(1 – x) can u solve this?

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

-115/69

Step-by-step explanation:

12(6x + 10) + x = 9x + 5(1 - x)

72x + 120 + x = 9x + 5 - 5x

73x + 120 = 4x + 5

69x = 5 - 120

69x = -115

x = -115/69
