Answer:

  D.  9

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment lengths are equal, so ...

  x^2 = 90-x

  x^2 +x -90 = 0 . . . . . . add x-90 to put in standard form

  (x +10)(x -9) = 0 . . . . . factor

The solutions are the values of x that make the factors zero: -10, 9.

The positive value of x is 9.

Let cheese wafers = x
chocolate wafers = y

we know they bought 20 total packets so x+y = 20, this can be re-written as x = 20-y

cheese wafers cost 2, so we have 2x
chocolate wafers cost 1, so we have 1y, which is just the letter y

so we know 2x + y = $25

replace x with x=20-y to get:

2(20-y)+y = 25

distribute the parenthesis:

40-2y +y = 25

combine like to terms to get:
40-y = 25

subtract 40 from each side"
-y = -15

divide both sides by -1
y = 15

chocolate wafers was y so they bought 15 chocolate wafers
cheese wafers was x, so they bought 20-15 = 5 cheese wafers
 
using the substitution method was the easiest way to isolate one of the variables in order to find the solution.

Ok this is simple. first, lets look at the 123 angle, so the entire line is 180. subtract 123 from 180 and you have 57. a triangle will always add up to 180 degress aswell. so add 58 and 57 and thats 115. so since a triangle will always add up to 180, subtract 115 from 180 and you have the missing angle:

65!
