Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar we can find x using similarity ratio
14/8 = (x+6)/(x-3) simplify first expression
7/4 = (x+6)/(x-3) cross multiply expressions
7×(x-3) = 4×(x+6)
7x-21 = 4x + 24 add like terms
3x = 45
x = 15
0.12 because it equals to 12% where 1.2% equals to 0.012
Answer:
Im pretty sure it's the 2nd one
150 divided by 25 is 6, so I think it would be 6 hours to equal the total cost.
The problem can be translated into an equation that is something like 4/5 + 3/x = 1/2
we cannot have x equal to zero because the number can be infinite.
So the LCD here is 10x, so multiply both sides by that to get:
8x + 30 = 5x
Subtract 5x and 30 from both sides:
3x = -30
divide:
x = -10
The solution isn't zero so there is a solution.
