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: -1

step-by-step explanation:

to determine the unit cost your would divide the total cost by the number sold.

7 bagels for $4.41       $4.41/7 = $.63 each at fresh side

5 bagels for $3.60         $3.60/5 = $.72 each at value mart
