Question

What is the value of x?

Answer 1

Answer:

B, x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Both triangles are similar with a ratio of 22.5/9

so using that an equation can be created like this, $\frac{22.9}{9}$ = $\frac{23.5}{x+4.4}$

If simplified, 22.9(x + 4.44) = 23.5(9)

22.5x + 99 = 211.5

22.5x = 112.5

x = 5
