Question

"Solve for x. Enter as a decimal not as a fraction. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary."

Answer 1

x =

5

Step-by-step explanation

From the given diagram, it can be infered that WY = 2QR

From the diagram

WY = x+9

QR = 2x-3

substitute into the expression

x+9 = 2(2x-3)

x+9 = 4x - 6

Collect the like terms

x-4x = -6-9

-3x = -15

x = -15/-3

x = 5

Hence the value of x is 5
