SOMEONE PLEASE HELP IM FAILING THIS CLASS Given the similar triangles, find the value of x.
AABC~AAGF

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ∆ABC ~ ∆AGF, it follows that their lengths would be proportional to each other. This implies that:

AB/AG = AC/A F

Substitute

55/22 = 30/(4x - 4)

5/2 = 30/(4x - 4)

Cross multiply

5(4x - 4) = 30(2)

20x - 20 = 60

20x - 20 + 20 = 60 + 20

20x = 80

Divide both sides by 20

20x/20 = 80/20

x = 4

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
