5x=2x+24
5x-2x=24
3x=24
x=24/3
x=8
Now you can verify by putting 8 in the x :)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Let's derive a formula</u> :
⇒ Area (triangle) × 3 = Area (square)
⇒ 1/2(bh) × 3 = a²
∴ But a = h (shown in diagram)
⇒ 3/2(bh) = h²
⇒ <u>h = 3b/2</u>
<u>Now, taking tan θ</u> :
⇒ tan θ = b/h
⇒ tan θ = b/(3b/2)
⇒ tan θ = 2b/3b
⇒ tan θ = 2/3
Answer:
c = 64
Step-by-step explanation:
I couldn't find the constant of proportionality ( probably 25). 1/4 (25%) of $29 is $1.16.
$29+$1.16 = $30.16
A pair of $29 jeans would cost $30.16.
