Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 3 = 3x + 9
subtract 3 on both sides (cancels out 3) (inverse operation)
5x = 3x + 6
subtract 3x on both sides (cancels out 3x) (inverse operation)
2x = 6
divide both sides by 2 (isolates x) (simplifies)
x = 3

Answer:
x = 42.9 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Corresponding sides of similar triangles MAB and MNP are proportional. This means ...
x/MP = MA/MN
However, we don't have a number for MA yet, so we need to find it.
MA +AN = MN
MA = MN - AN subtract AN
MA = 67.2 m - 32 m = 35.2 m
Now, we can use this to find x.
x = MP · (MA/MN) = (81.9 m) · 35.2/67.2
x = 42.9 m
A because it isn't a whole number or integer or irrational
