What is the value of X

Step-by-step explanation:

it's another one of those similar triangles

it's easier to see this one.

t /c = u / b

where

t = 7x + 3

c = 27

u = 35

b = 21

plug in the knowns

7x + 3 / 27 = 35 / 21

7x + 3  = 27 ( 35 / 21 )

7x + 3 = 9 ( 35 / 7 )     ( divided by 3 )

7x  + 3  = 9 ( 5)     ( 7 into 35 =5 )

7x  + 3  = 45

7x = 45 - 3

7x = 42  

x = 6

I checked it, the ratio is 1_2/3  :) for both, but you can check it too

hey seth! : )

i’m not 100% sure, but i think it’s b

hope this ya : p

miss u!
