What is the value of x?
Enter your answer in the box.
x =___

Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram shows an equilateral triangle (because all angles are congruent). All sides in equilateral triangle are congruent, so
[tex]4x-10=5x-22=3x+2[/tex]
Solve the equation
[tex]4x-10=5x-22\\ \\4x-10-4x=5x-22-4x\\ \\-10=x-22\\ \\-10+22=x-22+22\\ \\12=x[/tex]
Check this value:
[tex]4x-10=4\cdot 12-10=48-10=38\ units \\ \\5x-22=5\cdot 12-22=60-22=38\ units\\ \\3x+2=3\cdot 12+2=36+2=38\ units[/tex]
Thus, [tex]x=12[/tex]
