Question

Line segment AC is parallel to DE.. Solve for x.

x = 27

x = 1

x = 25

x = 3

Answer 1

Because :
\[AC//DE\]
then :
\[\frac{BE}{BC}=\frac{BD}{BA}\]
So :
\[\frac{2}{x+2}=\frac{6}{15}\]
Solve the equation to get x

Answer 2

okay i got this

Answer 3

but BA = x+2+2

Answer 4

Yes !
I have a mistake :
\[BA=x+2+2=x+4\]
@lopezking1

Answer 5

so it would be 2/x+4

Answer 6

So how would it look like in a proportion

6(x+4)=32?

Answer 7

the correct form is 6(x+4) = 30

Answer 8

x=1?

Answer 9

correct

Answer 10

my question is where did the 15 come from and what happen to the 9

Answer 11

measure of BC = 9 + 6

Answer 12

ohhhh okay thanks

Answer 13

yw :)
