Find the value of x in 4:x::x:16

Mathematics
1 answer:
AnnyKZ [126]3 years ago
4 0

Given:

4:x::x:16

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

We have,

4:x::x:16

It means, we have

4:x = x:16

It can be rewritten as

\dfrac{4}{x}=\dfrac{x}{16}

On cross multiplication, we get

4\times 16=x\times x

64=x^2

Taking square root on both sides.

\pm \sqrt{64}=x

\pm 8=x

Since ratio can be negative or positive, therefore, the value of x is either -8 or 8.
