Answer:

x = \frac{4}{5},5

Step-by-step explanation:

If both the triangles ΔABC and ΔBCD are congruent,

Corresponding sides of both the triangles will be proportional.

\frac{AB}{BD}=\frac{AC}{CD}

\frac{5x}{3x+10}=\frac{5x-2}{4x+3}

5x(4x + 3) = (5x - 2)(3x + 10)

20x² + 15x = 15x² + 50x - 6x - 20

20x² + 15x = 15x² + 44x - 20

20x² - 15x² = 44x - 15x - 20

5x² = 29x - 20

5x² - 29x + 20 = 0

5x² - 25x - 4x + 20 = 0

5x(x - 5) - 4(x - 5) = 0

(5x - 4)(x - 5) = 0

x=\frac{4}{5},5

PLEASE HELP ME!

Answer:

76.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the proportion

\frac{120}{100} → Percent is out of 100

\frac{120}{100} = \frac{n}{64} ( cross-  multiply )

100n = 7680 ( divide both sides by 100 )

n = 76.8
