Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of x in this case.

For this, we need to consider that the triangles are similar. Now, we can find it as follows :

\dfrac{12}{3}=\dfrac{20}{x}\\\\x=\dfrac{20\times 3}{12}\\\\x=5

So, the value of x is equal to 5.

X= r-h/y<br> solve for h and r
malfutka [58]
X = r - h/y ; Solve for h & r

Let's first solve for h :)

Add h/y to both sides.

h/y + x = r

So, r = h/y + x 

Now, let's solve for h.

x = r-h/y

Subtract r from both sides.

-r + x = -h/y

Multiply both sides by y.

y(-r + x) = y(-h/y)

Simplify.

-ry + xy = -h

Divide both sides by -1.

ry - xy = h

So, h = ry - xy

Alan is 5 years older than Bob. Bob is twice as old as Cindy. All their ages add up to 20. What are their ages?
Llana [10]
We can use a variable equation to solve this. Let A represent alan's age, B represent bob's age, and C represent Cindy's age. So Bob's age would be Alan's age - 5, or a -5 = B. Then Bob's age would be double Cindy's age, so that means 2 multiplied by Cindy's age = Bob's age, or 2C = B. Your two equations are: 

A - 5 = B
2C = B

Also a third equation that helps is A + B + C = 20.

Finally, here are the ages. 
Alan = 11 years old
Bob = 6 years old
Cindy = 3 years old.

Find the distance between the points (-3, 11) and (5, 5).<br><br> 10<br> 2<br> 2
yanalaym [24]
Use the distance formula to find the distance between two points.

d= \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

d= \sqrt{(-3-5)^2+(11-5)^2} \\ d - \sqrt{-8^2+6^2} \\ d=\sqrt{64+36} \\ d = \sqrt{100} \\\\ \boxed{d=10}
