Find the value of x!

x =

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the corresponding sides are congruent.

EF and BC are corresponding sides , then

8x - 3 = 5x + 13 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

3x - 3 = 13 ( add 3 to both sides )

3x = 16 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x =

cant

step-by-step explanation: there is no picture

x = 2

step-by-step explanation:

if sr parallel to ba then the sides bc and ac are in proportion, that is

= ← substitute values

= ( cross- multiply )

27x = 6(4x + 1)

27x = 24x + 6 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

3x = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 2
