Find the value of x.

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a line parallel to a side of the triangle and intersecting the other 2 sides then it divides those sides proportionally, that is

= ( cross- multiply )

3x = 2(10 - x)

3x = 20 - 2x ( add 2x to both sides )

5x = 20 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 4

step-by-step explanation:

the best buy, is the 4- kilogram bag of lollipops for $18.40.

step-by-step explanation:

i found my answer by dividing the cost of each bag by their respective weights.

14.88 divided by 2 = 7.44

17.29 divided by 3 = 5.77

18.4 divided by 4 = 4.6

24.4 divided by 5 = 4.88

by this, i found that the 4 kilo bag is the best buy.
