Answer:
x = 135
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the right triangle altitude theorem and similar triangles.
x/81 = 225/x
x^2 = 81 * 225
x = 9 * 15
x = 135
With what? i can try to help if you give me the problem
x:14 = 7:8
x:14 = x/14
7:8 = 7/8
x/14 = 7/8
Multiply the numerator of the 1st ratio with the denominator of the 2nd.
And multiply the numerator of the 2nd ratio with the denominator of the 1st.
Doing so, we get -
x * 8 = 7 * 14
So, 8x = 7 * 14
8x = 98
We divide 98 by 8 (transposition method)
x = 98/8
Therefore, x = 12.25
If we call the number x, we can write an equation to solve:
6(x - 4) = 12
6 × x = 6x
6 × -4 = -24
So you get 6x - 24 = 12
6x - 24 = 12
+ 24
6x = 12
÷ 6
x = 2
And your final answer is 2, I hope this helps!
