Answer:

ST = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Line segment RS and segment ST must add up to line segment RT

Step 1: Define

RS = 17

ST = x + 6

RT = 3x - 5

Step 2: Set up equation

mRS + mST = mRT

17 + x + 6 = 3x - 5

Step 3: Solve for <em>x</em>

x + 23 = 3x - 5

23 = 2x - 5

28 = 2x

x = 14

Step 3: Find mST

ST = x + 6

ST = 14 + 6

ST = 20

Answer:

  D.  -17%

Step-by-step explanation:

The change from March to April is (April - March) = (100 -120) = -20. As a fraction of the March bill, that is ...

  -20/120 = -1/6

As a percentage, that change is ...

  -1/6 × 100% ≈ -16.667% ≈ -17%

The electric bill changed by about -17% from March to April.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Water went up 4%; groceries went up about 14%, and restaurant changed by -15%.

The percentage change is found by ...

  % change = ((new amount)/(original amount) -1) × 100%

Above, we have rearranged this to ...

  % change = ((new amount) -(original amount))/(original amount) × 100%
