This is an isosceles triangle. The angles at the base are congruent (they have the same measures).
Look at the picture.
We know: The sum of the measures of angles in a triangle is equal 180°.
Therefore we have the equation:
<em>combine like terms</em>
<em>subtract 5 from both sides</em>
<em>divide both sides by 7</em>
The sale price after both markdowns will be $336
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
The selling price of an item is $600. After 6 months of not selling, it is marked down by 30%
So, the marked down amount after 6 months
and the selling price after first 6 months will be:
After another 6 months of not selling , it is further marked down by 20%. So, the marked down amount now
Thus, the final selling price after all markdowns
