i dont understand picture is

27 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to solve this problem.  Put the side of the small triangle over the same side of the large triangle.

x+8          10

=

2x-5          14

Using cross products

14 (x+8) = 10 (2x-5)

Distribute

14x+112 = 20x-50

Subtract 14x from each side

14x-14x +112 = 20x-50-14x

112 = 6x-50

Add 50 to each side

112+50 = 6x-50+50

162 = 6x

Divide by 6

162/6 =6x/6

27 =x

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes. 

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is c

hope this !
