My answer would be false. I hope this answers your question!
Answer:
<u><em>x = 37/45</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's how similar triangles work. We set up an equation as SIDE 1A/ SIDE 1B = SIDE 2A/ SIDE 2B
Ok, so these 2 triangles are similar, so we can set up a butterfly equation:
Side 1a would be 8x
Side 1b would be 5x +3
Side 2a would be 10x - 2
Side 2b would be 7x
----------------------------------------------------
Our equation would be
8x/(5x+3) = (10x-2)/7x
We cross multiply to get 8x(10x-2) = 7x(5x+3)
Instead of solving and getting squares, we can x on both sides and we get:
8(10x - 2) = 7(5x+3) ----> we simplify to get
80x - 16 = 35x + 21 ----> it's easy sailing from here.
45x = 37
<u><em>x = 37/45</em></u>

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello <u>156339</u>
Since we know the amount of money is always decreasing, then we should know to subtract by 35. Because 2.25 is the cost per meal and x is the number of meals, the total cost should be 2.25x, which is correct because y is the amount of money left over.
Our final equation would be:
<u><em>y = 35 - 2.25x</em></u>

It’s hard to tell because there isn’t a visual. My guess is that it’s ASA~ and SAS~ because T is congruent to P and A and F have the same angle
