Answer:

option A

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x+ 3}{12x} \ \cdot \ \frac{4x}{x^2 +x - 6}\\\\= \frac{x+ 3}{12x} \ \cdot\ \frac{4x}{x^2 +3x - 2x - 6}\\\\= \frac{x+ 3}{12x} \cdot \frac{4x}{x(x + 3) -2(x+3)}\\\\= \frac{x+ 3}{12x} \cdot \frac{4x}{(x + 3)(x -2)}\\\\= \frac{1}{12x} \ \cdot \ \frac{4x}{(x - 2)} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \\\\= \frac{1}{3} \ \cdot \ \frac{1}{(x - 2)}\\\\= \frac{1}{3(x - 2) }$

What is the value of x?

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ΔACB ≅ ΔDCE then ∠A ≅ ∠D, that is

3x - 10 = 2x + 10 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

x - 10 = 10 ( add 10 to both sides )

x = 20
