Answer:

x= - 35 over 89

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

x−23+5x=18(x−1)

x+−23+5x=(18)(x)+(18)(−1)(Distribute)

x+−23+5x=18x+−18

(

x+5x)+(−23)=18x−18(Combine Like Terms)

x+−23=18x−1837

x−23=18x−18

Step 2: Subtract 18x from both sides.

x−23−18x=18x−18−18x

−89

x−23=−18

Step 3: Add 23 to both sides.

−89

x−23+23=−18+23

−89

x=5

Step 4: Multiply both sides by 7/(-89).

Answer:

3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

When we enlarge or shrink an object, we perform a dilation. A dilation preserves the relationship between sides and the exact angle measure. This means the original and the enlargement are proportional and any missing lengths can be found through a proportion.

A proportion is an equation where two ratios or fractions are equal. The ratios or fractions compare like quantities. For example, we will compare height over length of the original rectangle to an equal ratio of height to length of the enlargement. Since we do not know height of the enlargement, we will use a variable to write:

$\frac{2}{9} =\frac{h}{13.5}$
