What is the value of x

Mathematics
1 answer:
goblinko [34]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

52/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use basic Thales therom,

\frac{3x}{4x}=\frac{3x+7}{5x-8}\\\\\frac{3}{4}=\frac{3x+7}{5x-8}\\

Cross multiply,

3*(5x-8)=4*(3x+7)

3*5x - 3*8 = 4*3x + 4*7

15x - 24 = 12x +28

Add 24 to both sides

15x = 12x + 28 + 24

15x = 12x + 52

Subtract 12x from both sides

15x-12x =52

3x = 52

Divide both sides by 3

x = 52/3

Use the distributive property to express 15+45
Nuetrik [128]
<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
15(1+3)

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u>The distributive property can be generally expressed as follows:</u>
ab + ac = a(b+c)

<u>The given expression is:</u>
15 + 45

<u>We know that:</u>
15 = 1*15
45 = 3*15

<u>Therefore, the given expression can be written as:</u>
1*15 + 3*15

<u>Taking 15 as a common factor and applying the above rule, we will reach the following expression:</u>
15(1+3)

Hope this helps :)
