Answer: 5.25 or 5.5 [see note]

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 (15 – 6) +3 <em><u>[I'm not clear what is meant by the " : 12," so I left it out.]</u></em>

1/4 (9) +3

9/4 + 3

2.25 + 3 = 5.25

===

If it is supposed to read

1/4 (15 – 6) +3/12

Then it would be

5.25 + 0.25 = 5.5

Answer:

Answer:

$x=\frac{75}2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Give letters, as in the attached image.

The triangles ABE and CDE are similars (AAA). In particular $AE:CE=BE:DE \rightarrow 46:30=(x+20):x \rightarrow 46x=30(x+20) \rightarrow 23x=15x+300 \rightarrow 8x=300\rightarrow x=\frac{75}2$
