Step-by-step explanation:
14a. One method is two solve for x. Edit: I accidentally press sent. Repost the question and I'll answer it.
Your answer is 24! If you work backwards and divide 120 by 5, you get 24. To check your work, multiply 24 by 5 to get 120. Hope this helps! Please mark brainliest and have an amazing rest of your day. Stay safe! xx
Answer:
9x^2+24x+16
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Choice A) AA postulate; 18
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Work Shown:
The triangles are similar to each other due to the AA (angle angle) postulate. The top angles are overlapping or shared angles. So that's the first pair. The second pair of angles is either bottom pair of angles, from the fact that corresponding angles are congruent. This is only true if the lines are parallel.
Due to the similar triangles, we can set up the proportion and solve for x
8/(8+4) = 12/x
8/12 = 12/x
8*x = 12*12 ... cross multiply
8x = 144
x = 144/8
x = 18
