Add 8 to both sides
3x=33
Divide both sides by 3
x=11
Answer:
EB=3.3
Step-by-step explanation:
From the diagram, triangle ABC is similar to triangle DBE.
This means that, the corresponding sides are proportional.
It was given that AC=6, DE=4, CB=5.
We want to find EB=x
Since the ratio of corresponding sides are proportional, we have:
We substitute to obtain:
Multiply both sides by 5 to get:
