Question

Find the value of X for the following

Answer 1

The answer is X = 10

Answer 2

x = 8.1

Explanation:

According to Euclidean theorem:

10² = 12 × (2x - 8)

• Multiply inside the parenthesis with 12.

10² = 24x - 96

• Find the second power of 10.

100 = 24x - 96

• Add 96 to both sides.

100 + 96 = 24x

• Add the expressions.

196 = 24x

• Divide both sides by 24.

8.1 = x approximately
