Pls help find x in both

Mathematics
1 answer:
RUDIKE [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In similar triangles, corresponding sides are in same ratio

\frac{28}{24} = \frac{3x-9}{x +8}\\\\\frac{7}{6}=\frac{3x-9}{x+8}\\

Cross multiply,

7*(x + 8) = 6*(3x -9 )

7x + 7*8 = 6*3x - 6*9

7x +  56   = 18x - 54

          56 = 18x - 7x -54

          56 = 11x - 54

         11x - 54 = 56

               11x  = 56 +54

                11x = 110

               x = 110 /11

x = 10

PR = 3x -9

     = 30 - 9

PR = 21

6(1 + 3R) = 2(10R - 9) -4R
Damm [24]

Answer:

R=-12

Step-by-step explanation:

6(1 + 3R) = 2(10R - 9) -4R

Distribute 6 through the parentheses

6+18R=2(10R-9)-4R

Distribute 2 through the parentheses

6+18R=20R-18-4R

Collect like terms

6+18R=16R-18

Move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign

6+18R-16R=-18

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

18R-16R=-18-6

Collect like terms

2R=-18-6

Calculate the difference

2R=-24

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

R=-12

if you'd make me brainliest that'd be great, if not its ok as well! I hope this helped!!!

Help please! Would mean so much to me<3
marusya05 [52]
So:
(x-4)(x+2) / (x-4)(x+4)
We cancel out the x - 4:
(x+2)/(x+4)
Restrictions: x ≠ 4, x ≠ -4
