Can someone please help me out!!?

Mathematics
1 answer:
HACTEHA [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{10}{8} = \frac{3x-6}{12} --> Triangle Similarity Theorem

120 = 8(3x - 6) --> Cross Multiplying

120 = 24x - 48 --> Distributing the 8

24x - 48 + 48 = 120 + 48 --> Adding 48 on both sides

24x = 168 --> Simplifying

24x/24 = 168/24 --> Divide 24 on both sides

x = 7 --> Simplifying

Hope this helped! <3
