Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use similar triangles and ratios. Put the small triangle side over the large triangle side.
9cm 3x -20
---------- = ---------------- We need to add the sides to get to the larger triangle
72+9 cm 3x-20 + 56
We can cross multiply to solve
9 * (3x-20+56) = (72+9) * (3x-20)
Simplify
9*(3x+36) = 81*(3x-20)
Distribute
27x +324 = 243x -1620
Subtract 27x from each side
27x-27x +324 = 243x-27x -1620
324 = 216x-1620
Add 1620 to each side
324+1620 = 216x
1944 = 216x
Divide each side by 216
1944/216 = 216x/216
9=x

Answer:
y = -3x - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Lines that are parallel have the same gradient.
Therefore using the point (-2,-6) you can make your own equation.
-6 will be y, -2 will be x
All you have to do is find the y-intercept which is C in <em>y</em><em>=</em><em>mx</em><em>+</em><em>c</em>
-6 = -3(-2) + c
-6 = 6 + c
-12 = c
Therefore;
<u>y = -3x - 12</u>
