The diagram shows three touching circles. A is the centre of a circle of radius x centimeters.
B and C are the centers of circles of radius 3.8 centimeters. Angle ABC = 70.
Find the value of x

Iwould say 48 bc the line of x is the line of 6 so 6×6=48

So the first thing we do is to multiply the top equation by 3. the reason i want to do this is i notice there will be a 6y on both equations and can possibly add/subtract them. so we get 6y = -3x + 27. adding that and the second equation we get 6x = 27-15 which is 12. divide by 6 and we get 2. ∴ x = 2. substituting 2 into the first equation we get 2y = -2 + 9 which is 7. divide by 2 and we get 7/2. ∴ y = 7/2, x = 2.
