Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Using similarity theorem, we have the following:

$\frac{24}{24 - 15} = \frac{x}{x - 25}$

Solve for x

$\frac{24}{9} = \frac{x}{x - 25}$

Cross multiply

$24(x - 25) = x(9)$

$24x - 600 = 9x$

Subtract 24x from each side

$- 600 = 9x - 24x$

$- 600 = -15x$

Divide both sides by -15

40 = x

x = 40

Answer:

Grace is right

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2-x)-2(6x-8)=

so:

3×2 is 6

3×(-x) is -3x

-2×6x is -12x

-2×(-8) is 16 because -×- equals +

3(2-x)-2(6x-8)

=6-3x-12x+16

= -15x+22

x^2+3x+3+\dfrac{2x(x+5)+3(x+5)}{x+5}=\\\\\\=x^2+3x+3+\dfrac{(2x+3)(x+5)}{x+5}=x^2+3x+3+2x+3=\\\\\\=\boxed{x^2+5x+6}$
