Question

Need help. I've been stuck on this question for a long time.

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 24.75

Step-by-step explanation:

28/8 = 2x+3/15

420 = 16x +24

396 = 16x

x = 24.75

2(24.75) +3 =

49.5 + 3 = 52.5

Answer 2

Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

let's find the scale factor of the enlargement ∆ABC of ∆ADE

k=28/20=7/5 or 1.4

Now k×|AD|=|AB|

Therefore

k×|DE|=2x+3

7/5×15=2x+3

21=2x+3

21-3=2x

2x=18

x=9

let me know if I was right
