Answer:

<em>x = 24 </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The corresponding sides of similar Δs are proportional.

ΔADE ~ ΔABC ⇒ \frac{AD}{AB} = \frac{DE}{BC} = \frac{AE}{AC}

AD = x + 8 ; DE = 8

AB = x ; BC = 6

\frac{x+8}{x} = \frac{8}{6} ⇔ 8x = 6(x + 8) ⇒ <em>x = 24</em>

Answer:

<h3>x = 24</h3><h3></h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>  6  </u>= <u>   x    </u>    

 8     x + 8

8x = 6x + 48

8x - 6x = 48

2x = 48

x = 48/2

x = 24

1. If 5x + 6 = 10, what is the value of 10x + 3?
Digiron [165]
Here the question is simple.
All because, we only need to find the value of x.
We are given two equations.
5x + 6 = 10 and 10x + 3 =?
So, we will find the the value of x in the first equation, so that we can substitute the value of x in the second one and there we are with the answer.
5x + 6 = 10
For finding the value of x, all we have to do is,
Transpose the number 6 to 10
Therefore. 5x = 10 - 6 ( Take the equal sign as The Magic Bridge on which if anyone crosses it , will change its sign.)
So we have,
5x = 4
So x = 4/5 ( Multiplication will change to division after crossing the equal sign)
( Doubtful? Substitute the value of x and try!)
Now that we got the value of x,
We can just simply substitute the value of x in the second equation.
10x + 3 = ?
x = 4/5
10*4/5 +3 => 5 and 10 get canceled to 2 at the numerator.
By normal multiplication and then addition, we will get,
8 + 3 = 11
Hope this helps!!!! :)

makvit [3.9K]
162 short sleeve shirts; if you add 9 and 4, you get 13. Then, divide 234 by 13, which equals 18. 18 multiplied by 9 is 162.
