Not a choice- SAS x = 2/3, AA x = 8 2/3, SSS x= 22 8/13 AA x= 22 8/13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AA ((I think you know that)) so, 21/14 = 13/x

OpenStudy (melstutes):

So the answer would be B. 8.66 or 8 2/3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can not do this algebra??

OpenStudy (melstutes):

I am stuck

OpenStudy (anonymous):

with what?? solve for x \[\frac{ 21 }{ 14 }= \frac{ 13 }{ x }\]

OpenStudy (melstutes):

I got 8.6 for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is right 8.6666666666666667
