Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
the two triangles formed from c are similar which means the sides are proportional
the proportion of one length of a side of a triangle to a similar side of the other triangle is the same as another side to its corresponding side of the other triangle. god im bad explaining stuff
anyway 2 is to 8 what 2.5 is to length BC. 2/8 = 2.5/x
-crossmultiplyyy
2*x = 2.5*8
2x = 20
2x/2 = 20/2
x = 10
1 Simplify \frac{4}{15}x
15
4
x to \frac{4x}{15}
15
4x \frac{4x}{15}=1.44
4x =1.44
2 Multiply both sides by 1515.
4x=1.44\times 15
4x=1.44×15
3 Simplify 1.44\times 151.44×15 to 21.621.6.
4x=21.6
4x=21.6
4 Divide both sides by 44.
x=\frac{21.6}{4}
x= 4
21.65 Simplify \frac{21.6}{4} 421.6 to 5.45.4.
x=5.4
x=5.4
<em><u>The common difference d is </u></em>
<em><u>The first term is</u></em>
<em>so , the first term is -13 </em>
