Solve for x. Please:)

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

simlify 2nd part
-(a^2-3a+7)=-1(a^2-3a+7)=-a^2+3a-7

now we have
3a^2+2a-2-a^2+3a-7=
3a^2-a^2+2a+3a-2-7=
