(a.) The triangles presented in this problem are congruent. We can prove this using the AAA (angle-angle-angle) theorem of similarity. This states that if all three angles of a triangle are equivalent then the sides of the triangles are proportional. We know that all three angles of these triangles are the same since the image shows angle A = angle P, and angle B = angle Q, therefore, angle C = angle R.

(b.) Now that we know the triangles are similar and the sides are proportional, we can simply take a ratio of the sides to solve for x.

(3x+6)/24 = 28/32
3x+6 = (28/32)(24)
3x = 21 - 6
x = 15/3
x = 5

Mr. Marcucci received a bonus of $496 from his employer. He has to pay 33% of his bonus to taxes. How much will Mr. Marcucci pay
tiny-mole [99]
Edit: 33% is not \frac{1}{3}, therefore my solution is wrong. The correct answer is 0.33 x 496, which is $163.68

The following is the original solution, which is incorrect. 
33% = \frac{1}{3}. Multiply the bonus of $496 by \frac{1}{3} to get the solution of \frac{496}{3}, or 165 and \frac{1}{3}

Therefore the solution is $165.33

What 2 numbers add up to get 17 and multiply to get -200
alexira [117]
There is no fixed equation when I arrived at these numbers.

I just did trial and error. I came up with 25 and -8 as the numbers.

200 ÷ 25 = 8 ⇒ the sum of 17 depends on the signs of each numbers.

-8 x 25 = -200

-8 + 25 = 17
