Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
X+8/2x+32=(5/8)^2
X+8/2x+32= 25/64
64(x+8)= (2x+32)25
64x+512= 50x+800
14x = 800-512
14x= 288
×=144/7

Answer:
Value of x is 144 / 7 .
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the duplicate ratio of any ratio is its square.
So, duplicate ratio of 5 : 8 should be its square.
Now,
= > Duplicate ratio of 5 : 8 = ( 5 : 8 )^2
= > Duplicate ratio of 5 : 8 = 25 : 64
According to the question : -
Duplicate ratio of 5 : 8 is ( x + 8 ) : 2( x + 16 )
So, comparing the duplicate ratios of 5 : 8 .
Now,
= > 25 : 64 = ( x + 8 ) : 2( x + 16 )
= > 25 x 2( x + 16 ) = 64( x + 8 )
= > 50x + 800 = 64x + 512
= > 800 - 512 = 64x - 50x
= > 288 = 14 x
= > 288 / 14 = x
= > 144 / 7 = x
