Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

XY = 3x – 1, YZ = 5, and XZ = 5x – 8,

We know that XY + YZ = XZ, so

3x - 1 + 5 = 5x - 8

3x + 4 = 5x - 8

3x + 12 = 5x

12 = 2x

6 = x

Svetlanka [38]
No.
1/4 would be proportional to 9/36.

8/36 can be simplified to 4/18, and further reduced to 2/9.

Solve the equations. 2.5x−3.67=1.52
aleksklad [387]
Our current equation is:
2.5x -3.67 = 1.52.
To solve for x, we need to get x by itself and then simplify what we can from there.
2.5x -3.67 = 1.52
Add 3.67 to both sides to get 2.5x by itself.
2.5x = 5.19 is now our new equation.
Divide both sides by 2.5 to get x.
5.19/2.5 = 2.07
x = 2.07
I hope this helps!
