I tryed my best to figure out what all of the numbers were. if i got any wrong then please tell me and i will put the right answer in the comments.

1) 3/5= 5/x (cross multiply)
3x=5(5)
3x=25
x= 25/3 -or- 8.33

2) 2/4=x/12 (cross multiply)
 2(12)=4x
 24=4x
 6=x
3) 10/x=5/9 (cross multiply)
10(9)=5x
90=5x
18=x
4) 5/5=x/18 (cross multiply)
5(18)=18x
90=18x
5=x

What is the value of x?

Ksenya-84 [330]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{360 - 2(x + 30)}{2} = x \\ 360 - 2x - 60 = 2x \\ 300 - 4x = 0 \\ 4x = 300 \\ x = 300 \div 4 = 75$
