------ = -------------
8 x
Using cross products
5 * x = 8 *15
Divide by 5
5x/5 = 8*15/5
x = 8*3
x =24
Answer:
The answer is 24in.
Step-by-step explanation:
My explanation isn't very useful, I just looked at the image and say that 5in was 1/3 of 15in. therefore I multiplied 8in by 3 and got 24in.
I hope this helps!
