Question

A. 3
b. 4
c. 6
d. 8

Answer 1

Triangle ACD is an enlarged triangle of Triangle ABE

so an equation can be formed to solve this:

`(3x)/(30) = (48)/(30 + 30)`

`(3x)/(30) = (48)/(60)`

`(3x)/(60) = (48)/(30)`

`180x = 1440`

`x = (1440)/(180)`

`x = 8`

Answer 2

D. x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle ACD is an enlarged triangle of Triangle ABE

so an equation can be formed to solve this:

`(3x)/(30)` =
`(48)/(30+30)`

`(3x)/(30)` =
`(48)/(60)`

3x * 60 = 48 * 30

180x = 1440

x = 1440 ÷ 180

x = 8
