x = 4
First you combine like terms:
8 + 4x = 24
Then solve:
4x = 24 - 8
4x = 16
x = 16/4
x = 4
There are several ways two triangles can be congruent.
<em> congruent by SAS</em>
<em> congruent by corresponding theorem</em>
In
and
(see attachment), we have the following observations
--- Because O is the midpoint of line segment AD
--- Because O is the midpoint of line segment BC
---- Because vertical angles are congruent
---- Because vertical angles are congruent
Using the SAS (<em>side-angle-side</em>) postulate, we have:

Using corresponding theorem,
---- i.e. both triangles are congruent
The above congruence equation is true because:
- <em>2 sides of both triangles are congruent</em>
- <em>1 angle each of both triangles is equal</em>
- <em>Corresponding angles are equal</em>

Answer: False
Systems of linear equations can only have 0, 1, or an infinite number of solutions. These two lines cannot intersect twice. The correct answer is that the system has one solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
30%
Step-by-step explanation:
Think of this as converting a fraction. 28/40 to x/100. You do this because in the situation, 40 is 100 percent of the price. So 28 is <em>x</em> percent of 100.
You multiply 40 by 2.5 to get to 100, so multiply 28 by the same number to get x. 28 * 2.5 = 70.
So 28 is 70 percent of 40. But the question is asking by what percentage it is <em>discounted. </em>If it's now selling for 70%, it has been discounted 30%. So the answer is 30%
