x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.

it is true

step-by-step explanation:

all the combinations add up i used   calculator

option 3 . (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

step-by-step explanation:

option 1 :

(4x + 3) + (-9x + 4)

or 4x+3 -9x + 4

or -5x + 7

option 2

(x - 2) - (6x - 9)

or x-2-6x + 9

or -5x + 7

option 3

(5x+ + 6)

or 5x + 1 + 10x -6

or 15x -5

option 4

-4x+2x+7-3x

-7x + 2x + 7

-5x + 7

hence only option 3 did   not satisfy the given simplify expression.
