The "x-intercept" occurs when y=0, because it is at this point that the equation touches the x axis. So if you plug in y=0 into the equation you can solve for the x coordinate.
4x-2(0)-8=0
4x-8=0
4x=8
x=2
So the x-intercept is the point (2,0)
A = C (congruent angles)
Then: 4p+12 = 36
Solve for p
4p = 36 - 12
4p = 24
4p/4 = 24/4
p = 6
Answer is going to be A.
Your classmate's error about AB and DC being complimentary and parallel is that they misapplied the alternate angle property.
<h3>Why are AB and DC not parallel?</h3><h3 />
There isn't enough evidence presented in the diagram to say that AB and DC are parallel.
The evidence required would be proof that angle AWZ is equal to angle WZY.
Instead, all we have is that angle AWZ and angle XYC are equal which does not tell us what we need to know about AB and DC being parallel.

Define x :
--------------------------------------------------------------
Let the dryer be x.
Dryer = x
Washer = x -53
--------------------------------------------------------------
Construct Equation :
--------------------------------------------------------------
The washer and the dryer cost $847
⇒ x + x - 53 = 847
--------------------------------------------------------------
Solve x :
--------------------------------------------------------------
x + x - 53 = 847
2x - 53 = 847
2x = 847 + 53
2x = 900
x = 450
--------------------------------------------------------------
Find cost of dryer and washer :
--------------------------------------------------------------
Dryer = x = $450
Washer = x = 450 - 53 = 397
--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Dryer = $450
--------------------------------------------------------------
