I’m the figure below, the segment is parallel to one side of the triangle. find the value of x

18

Step-by-step explanation:

12/x = 16 / (x + 6)

Cross multiply

16x = 12(x + 6)

Distributive property

16x = 12x + 72

4x = 72

x = 18

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line is parallel to a side of a triangle and it intersects the other 2 sides, it divides those sides proportionally, hence

= ( cross- multiply )

16x = 12(x + 6)

16x = 12x + 72 ( subtract 12x from both sides )

4x = 72 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 18

answer: the answer is (b) amie should have multiplied

step-by-step explanation: given a sphere and a cylinder with same radius and height.

let, 'r' be the radius of the cylinder and sphere and 'h' be the height of the cylinder. according to the question,

r = h.

now, the volume of the sphere will be

and the volume of the cylinder will be

therefore, we have

thus, ammie should have multiplied the volume of the sphere
