(c/b) - x = 2d
(c/b) = 2d + x
c = b(2d + x)
c = 2db + bx
ac + bd = x
ac = x - bd
c = (x - bd) / a OR c = (x/a) - (bd/a)
Answer:
from those are similar, the ratio of side will be 40/24=x/20 so x=33.3333 is equal 33 and one-third.
The slope can be found by using the formula:
m

Where
m
is the slope and (

) are the two points on the line.
Substituting the values from the points in the problem gives:
