PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS

6.5/x=10/40;x=26

Step-by-step explanatio

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

There are a couple of ways that would produce the right answer. The proportion must be set up so that likes are on the numerator and denominator.

6.5 vertical height of the small triangle/ horizontal small 10  =

x vertical of the tree/ 40 horizontal of the tree.

Notice what we have

vertical / horizontal = vertical / horizontal

6.5 / 10 = x / 40         Cross multiply

6.5 * 40 = 10 * x

260 = 10 * x               Divide by 10

26 = x

- 4, v72, 32/5

i think this is right.

hope it
