@hartnn

OpenStudy (anonymous):

by similar triangle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ x+6 }{ 2x-3 } = 1\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x+6 = 2x -3\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x=9 \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

subst. the value of x to the given

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then you can now find the length of the longer leg of the triangle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im confused what do i substitute

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to find the value of line EF and BC

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you already type the aquation down

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh so ur just explaining it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes so if subst. the value of x which is 9 u can get the ff.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for line BC =15

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for line EF = 15 also

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what would be the whole answer and explanation that i would write down

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know but just want to know what order to put it in

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ill already explain it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my answer is in order

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes idol :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is this in the correct order

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry about that i ddnt notice that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if this prob. need the equation only the answer is\[x+6 =2x -3\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thnx
