Multiplication, addition, subtraction
Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The outer and inner triangles are similar, thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
, that is
=
( cross- multiply )
12(x - 3) = 8x
12x - 36 = 8x ( subtract 8x from both sides )
4x - 36 = 0 ( add 36 to both sides )
4x = 36 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = 9
The x-axis.
In the form Y = mx + b
m is the slope, so no slope means that my is zero so that means x is zero also.
So you would end up with
y = b so that means y will always be that value and the only thing that will change is the x value. This will create a horizontal lines that is parallel to the x-axis
