Answer and explanation:
<em>To solve this, you must find what x equals</em>
x + 2x + 7 = 3x - 7 <em>Add together any numbers that can be added on their side</em>
3x + 7 = 3x - 7 <em>Then subtract 7 from both sides to get 3x alone</em>
3x = 3x - 14 <em> Then subtract 3x from both sides to get x</em>
<h3><em>*The x's cancel each other out so you must have typed the equation wrong. Please check to see any mistakes you may have made*</em></h3>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a picture!
You get a right triangle with hypotenuse = 20 ft and horizontal leg = 12 ft
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the vertical leg:
vertical leg = √(20²-12²) = √256 = 16 ft
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Set ratios and solve for x
<u>Corresponding sides are AC with A'C' and CB with C'B'</u>
- AC/A'C' = CB/C'B'
- (x - 1)/2 = (x + 4)/3
- 3(x - 1) = 2(x + 4)
- 3x - 3 = 2x + 8
- 3x - 2x = 8 + 3
- x = 11
<u>Find the values of AC and CB:</u>
- AC = x - 1 = 11 - 1 = 10 cm
- CB = x + 4 = 11 + 4 = 15 cm
4:7 = 8:14
4 x 2 = 8. 7 x 2 = 14
