Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

Given : ΔABC ~ ΔDEC

By the property of similarity,

"Corresponding sides of the similar triangles are proportional"

\frac{\text{AB}}{ED}=\frac{BC}{EC}=\frac{AC}{DC}

Since, \frac{\text{AB}}{ED}=\frac{AC}{DC}

\frac{42}{6}=\frac{x}{(32-x)}

6x = 42(32 - x)

6x = 1344 - 42x

6x + 42x = 1344

48x = 1344

x = \frac{1344}{48}

x = 28 units

Therefore, Option (A). x = 28 units will be the answer.

A photographer uses an online service to sell some of his work. The amount of money he will make from selling 10 copies of the s
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression representing the amount of money that the photographer would make from selling 10 copies is given as

10(0.75p - 0.5)

where p represents the price determined for each copy. Assuming the price charged per copy is $5, then the amount made from 10 copies is

10(0.75 × 5 - 0.5) = $32.5

It could have been

10(5 - 0.5) = $45

The price is being reduced by 25%(100 - 75)

Therefore, the option that most likely describes the agreement between the online service company and the photographer is

A. The company keeps 25% of the amount paid for each copy and charges the photographer $0.50 for every copy purchased.
