Mathematics
1 answer:
lutik1710 [3]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

  x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller triangle and larger one are similar, so corresponding sides are proportional.

  8/4 = (8 +(x -1))/5

  10 = x +7 . . . . . . . . . multiply by 5 and simplify

  3 = x . . . . . . . . . subtract 7

__

<em>Alternate solution</em>

The short segments are also proportional:

  (x -1)/(5 -4) = 8/4

  x -1 = 2 . . . . simplify

  x = 3 . . . . . . add 1

Solve the following equation for N<br><br> 1/5 (N+3)+4=3/10 (2N-2)<br><br><br> n = ________
postnew [5]

Answer:

n = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5(n + 3) + 4 = 3/10(2n - 2)

~Simplify both sides

1/5n + 3/5 + 4 = 3/5n - 3/5

~Combine like terms

1/5n + 23/5 = 3/5n - 3/5

~Subtract 23/5 to both sides

1/5n = 3/5n - 26/5

~Multiply 5 to both sides

n = 3n - 26

~Subtract 3n to both sides

-2n = -26

~Divide -2 to both sides

n = 13

Best of Luck!
