Vertical angles are congruent or equal to each other.

Set the equation:

8x - 8 = 7x + 8

Add 8 to both sides of the equation.

8x - 8 + 8 = 7x + 8 + 8

8x = 7x + 16

Subtract 7x from both sides of the equation.

8x - 7x = 7x - 7x + 16

x = 16

Answer: D) 16

Checking to see if our answer is right.

8x - 8 = 7x + 8

8(16) - 8 = 7(16) + 8

128 - 8 = 112 + 8

120 = 120

Answer: 27/36

Step-by-step explanation: It says there are 36 bikes (18 pairs), meaning that there are 2 bikes per pair because 18 multiplied by 2 is 36.

1 pair (2 bikes) are yellow.

3 pairs (6 bikes) are red.

For purple, add yellow and red together: 2 + 6 = 8. Subtract the total number of bikes from this: 36 - 8 = 28 purple bikes.

If you take out 1 purple bike, this leaves you with 27. The probability of choosing a purple bike out of the total (36), is 27/36.

Please let me know if this is correct or wrong.
