Set up a ratio with the known dimensions:

24/15 = 40/x

Cross multiply:

24x = 600

Divide both sides by 24:

X = 25

A grocer has 2 kinds of tea, one that sells for $8.00 per pound and the other that sells for $6.00 per pound. How many pounds of
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

35 pounds of $8.00 tea and 15 pounds of $6.00 tea

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the pounds of tea of the $8 kind. 8x would represent the total cost of that type of tea. We can also say 50 - x is the pounds of tea of the $6 kind, so 6(50 - x) is the total cost of that type of tea. 50 * 7.4 represents the total cost of all the tea, and the expression 8x + 6(50 -x) would also represent the same thing. We can write this as an equation,

8x + 6(50 -x) = 50 * 7.4

simplify,

8x + 300 - 6x = 370

2x + 300 = 370

and solve.

2x = 70

x = 35

This means there is 35 pounds of the $8 kind.

We can subtract that from 50 to find,

50 - 35 = 15,

15 pounds is the amount of the $6 kind.

Complete the paragraph proof. We are given that ∠B ≅ ∠C. Assume segment AB is not congruent to . If AB > AC, then m∠C > m∠
Lorico [155]

Given that ∠B ≅ ∠C.

to prove that the sides AB = AC

This can be done by the method of contradiction.  

If possible let AB \neq=AC

Then either AB>AC or AB<AC

Case i:  If AB>AC, then by triangle axiom, Angle C > angle B.

But since angle C = angle B, we get AB cannot be greater than AC

Case ii:  If AB<AC, then by triangle axiom, Angle C < angle B.

But since angle C = angle B, we get AB cannot be less than AC

Conclusion:

Since AB cannot be greater than AC nor less than AC, we have only one possibility. that is AB =AC

Hence if angle B = angle C it follows that

AB = AC, and AB ≅ AC.
