Question

Could some please help and explain?

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

A rhombus is a parallelogram where all sides are equal. Therefore, as we know two sides are equal to 7x+8 and 9x-6, we can say that

7x+8 = 9x - 6

subtract 7x from both sides to put the variable on one side

2x - 6 = 8

add 6 to both sides to isolate the variable and its coefficient

2x = 14

divide both sides by 2 to isolate x

x = 7
