Which inequality is true? Use the number line to help. A number line going from negative 2.5 to positive 2.5 in increments of 0.5. Negative 1.5 greater-than 0.5 Negative 0.5 greater-than 0 Negative 1.5 less-than negative 0.5 One-half greater-than 0.5

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4
