There are several fractions that are equivalent to 4/5. Some are 8/10, 80/100, 800/1000. They all equal the same decimal: 0.8
X=amout the shirts cost
52=8+6.50+2x
add 8 and 6.5
52=14.5+2x
subtract 14.5 from 52
37.5=2x
divide 37.5 by 2
x=18.75
It cost $18.75 for each shirt.
Answer:
AE = 15 cm; ED = 18 cm; AD = 15 cm (given)
Step-by-step explanation:
ΔBEC ~ ΔAED so ...
AD/BC = AE/BE = (BE+AB)/BE = 1 + AB/BE
Substituting given numbers (lengths in centimeters), we have ...
15/10 = 1 + 5/BE
1/2 = 5/BE
BE = 10
Similarly, ...
1/2 = 6/CE
CE = 12
Then the unknown sides are ...
AE = AB + BE = 5 + 10 = 15 . . . cm
ED = CE + CD = 12 + 6 = 18 . . . cm
If Jose bought three Chocolate Bars for 18$ 18 divided by 3 would equal 6. Therefore each Chocolate Bar would cost 6$.
