Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given a graph of similar triangles. We are asked to find the value of x.
Since we know that corresponding sides of similar triangles are always in same proportion, so we will use proportions to find the length of x.

Upon cross multiplying our equation we will get,
Upon distributing 4 we will get,

Let us subtract 12 from both sides of our equation.

Upon dividing both sides of our equation by 4 we will get,
Therefore, the value of x will be 12.
B. -3 combine like terms first then solve the equation normally
40% of 400 would be 160.
40% is 0.4
so
0.4*400 = 160
to prove my work
400/160 = 0.4 = 40%
