Answer:
x=12

Answer:
c.sss because they have the same angles and triangles
Since the rate of the other store is not given, let us just get the sales price of the skirt Dima bought from the discount store.
Original price : $54
Discount rate : 30%
$54 x 30% = $16.20 value of the discount
$54 - 16.20 = $37.80 discounted price.
Since Dima's friend told her she could have had a better deal at a different store, this means that the discount rate is higher than 30%. Let us assume that the discount is 35%
$54 x 35% = $18.90 value of the discount
$54 - 18.90 = $35.10 discounted price.
Discount store: $37.80
Different store: $35.10
Different store sales price is cheaper by $2.70
I think the answer is the second one! Hope this helps!
