7 0

Answer:
x = 2

Explanation:
2(x+2)-5=3(x-1)
1) Use distributive property (multiply the 2 by x+2 and the 3 by x-1)
2x+4-5=3x-3
2) Combine like terms
2x-1=3x-3
3) Subtract 2x on both sides
-1=x-3
4) Add 3 on both sides
2=x

hope this helps!

Find the unknown side length x.

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

x = $\sqrt{65}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude of the triangle must equal 4 because it is a right triangle with another leg of 3 and a hypotenuse of 5 (reason is due to the pythagorean theorem)

Therefore, the triangle on the right has legs of 4 and 7 and, again, use the phythagorean theorem to find 'x' (the hypotenuse)

$4^{2}$ + $7^{2}$ = $x^{2}$
