Answer:

x = 3

Explanation:

Once again we want to use the relationship stated earlier

Where A * B = C * D

Once again imagine that the segments in the given problem have letters

A = x

B = 12

C = x + 1

D = 9

Now we create an equation using the relationship

12 * x = 9(x+1)

now we solve using basic algebra

step 1 distribute the 9 to the x and the 1

9 * x = 9x

9 * 1 = 9

now we have 12x = 9x + 9

step 2 subtract 9x from each side

12x - 9x = 3x

9x - 9x cancels out

now we have 3x = 9

step 3 divide each side by 3

3x/3=x

9/3=3

we're left with x = 3
