Enter your answer in the box
x = ?

Answer 1

x = 12

Explanation:

96 / 24 = 4, 28/ 7 = 4, assuming that it dilated by 4, so use 4 to multiply 25, 4 x 25 = 100 so 6x+28 = 100 then plug it in 6(12) + 28 = 100., 100 = 100

To check use a^2 + b^2 = c^2

28^2 + 96^2 = (6(12)+28)^2

784 + 9216 = (72+28)^2

784 + 9216 = 100^2

784 + 9216 = 10000

10000 = 10000
