Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line is parallel to a side of a triangle and it intersects the other 2 sides then it divides those sides proportionally, that is

$\frac{6x+2}{x +5}$ = $\frac{24-8}{8}$ = $\frac{16}{8}$ = 2 ( multiply both sides by x + 5 )

6x + 2 = 2(x + 5)

6x + 2 = 2x + 10 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

4x + 2 = 10 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

4x = 8 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 2

Hey there!

$20 \dfrac{1}{2} - 5 \dfrac{5}{12} - 3 \dfrac{1}{3} + 2 \times 10 \dfrac{1}{2} \\ = \dfrac{41}{2} - \dfrac{65}{12} - \dfrac{10}{3} + 21 \\ = \dfrac{246}{12} - \dfrac{65}{12} - \dfrac{40}{12} + 21 \\ = \dfrac{141}{12} + 21 \\ = 32 \dfrac{3}{4}$

Answer : 32 3/4 feet or in decimal form, 32.75 feet.

Hope this helps. - M
