The letter is c because you divide 40 by 5 = 8
Weight of an grapefruit=weight of an orange+8% weight of an orange
weight of an apple=weight of an orange -10% weight of an orange
a.<span>By what percentage is the grapefruit heavier than the apple?
We should find the connection between grapefruit and an apple. We know the connection between the weight of a grapefruit and an orange, we know the connection between an orange and an apple, so this means we know the connection between a grapefruit and an apple.
</span>
weight of an grapefruit=weight of an <span>orange+8% weight of an orange
</span>weight of an orange=weight of an apple<span> +10% weight of an apple
</span>
-> weight of an grapefruit=weight of an apple+10% weight of an apple + 8%(weight of an apple+10% weight of an apple)= weight of an apple + 18% weight of an apple + 2% weight of an apple= <span>weight of an apple + 20% weight of an apple
</span><span>b.By what percentage is the apple lighter than the grapefruit?
</span>weight of an grapefruit=weight of an apple + 20% weight of an apple<span>
</span>
-> The apple ts 20% lighter than the grapefruit.
Answer:
x= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
5x + -4 = 7x + 4
Solving
-4 + 5x = 4 + 7x
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-7x' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 5x + -7x = 4 + 7x + -7x
Combine like terms: 5x + -7x = -2x
-4 + -2x = 4 + 7x + -7x
Combine like terms: 7x + -7x = 0
-4 + -2x = 4 + 0
-4 + -2x = 4
Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 4 + -2x = 4 + 4
Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0
0 + -2x = 4 + 4
-2x = 4 + 4
Combine like terms: 4 + 4 = 8
-2x = 8
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = -4
Simplifying
x = -4
The triangle defined by three points on the coordinate plane is congruent with the triangle illustrated:
C) (4,2); (8,2); (4,8) because the corresponding pairs of sides and corresponding pairs of angles are congruent.
If we plot these points we can observe that they are congruent, we should also solve for the distance of each point between each other to conclude their congruency.
