Question

Hi, can someone help explain this. (Triangle similarity/10th grade)

Answer 1

This is one proportion that can be created from the given information
`(36)/(24) = (6x-6)/(3x+7)`.

You would then use cross product to solve it. Also reduce 36/24 to 3/2
3(3x + 7) = 2(6x - 6)
9x + 21 = 12x - 12
33 = 3x I subtracted 9x from both sides and added 12 to both sides
11 = x
