The solution would be like this for this specific problem:
The correct sequence of operations when solving
negative one over five (x − 25) = 7 would be multiply each side by −5, and adding
25 to each side.
12345678910111213
12 and 13 are consecutive numbers
12+13=25
hence, 12 and 13 are your answers
28+24=52
So we make a sum of what's going to equal 52 in small packets.
I found 4x13=52. 13 would be the number of packets......
BUT!! Since it MUST be equal dark and milk and we have 28 and 26,
you would have to eliminate 1 pack because all 4 would be milk chocolate.
So that is only 12 packets.
4 per pack so that would be 2 dark and 2 milk per packet.
You can find the segment congruent to AC by finding another segment with the same length. So first, you need to find the length of AC.
C - A = AC
0 - (-6) = AC Cancel out the double negative
0 + 6 = AC
6 = AC
Now, find another segment that also has a length of 6.
D - B = BD
2 - (-2) = BD Cancel out the double negative
2 + 2 = BD
4 = BD
4 ≠ 6
E - B = BE
4 - (-2) = BE Cancel out the double negative
4 + 2 = BE
6 = BE
6 = 6
So, the segment congruent to AC is B. BE .
The percentage of reduction is 17%
<u>Explanation:</u>
Original price = $21
Reduced price = $17.43
Percentage of reduction = ?
Difference in price = $21 - $17.43
= $3.57
Percentage of reduction = 
Therefore, percentage of reduction is 17%
