Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
The first thing you must do is notice that <D = <BEA. Mark it that way on your diagram.
The Second thing you need to notice is that <BEA and <A are equal because <A and <D are marked as equal.
So both the large triangle and the small one are isosceles. because 2 of the 3 angles are equal.
Now are you ready for this? That means that BA = 10 because BA is opposite one of the 2 equal angles in the small triangle. So now you are ready to set up a proportion.
Proportion
AB / AC = AE/AD
Givens
AB = 10
AC = 18
AE = 8
AD = x + 8
Solution
Substitute the Givens into the Proportion.
10/18 = 8/(x + 8) Cross multiply
10(x + 8) = 8 * 18 Simplify both sides
10x + 80 = 144 Subtract 80 from both sides
10x + 80 - 80 = 144 - 80
10x = 64 Divide by 10
10x/10 = 64/10
Answer: x = 6.4
It is the opposite. There is nothing called same operation...

Answer:
40 students
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, one is given the ratio ( 8 : 3 ), since a ratio is another way of writing a fraction one can rewrite it as; 
(8) represent the number of students who want to learn about magnets, and (3) represents the number of students who want to learn about magic tricks.
In the problem, it is also given that 25 more students wanted to learn about magnets compared to magic tricks. If one uses the parameter (x) to represent the factor by which the fraction is reduced, then one can get the equation;
8x = 3x + 25
Use inverse operations to solve,
8x = 3x + 25
-3x
5x = 25
/5
x = 5
Substitute back in to find out how many students want to learn about magnets,
8x
= 8(5)
= 40
