Simply this(−1.4m+0.4)

0.2584

12 (–1.4m + 0.4) = m + 0.2

Open the bracket

-16.8m + 4.8 = m + 0.2

collect like terms

-16.8m - m = -4.8 + 0.2

-17.8m = -4.6

Divide both sides by -17.8

m = 4.6/17.8 = 46/178

m = 0.2584

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.
