Yes you have a good example.
x = number of cookies
2*x = total amount spent on cookies at $2 each
2x-3 = amount you pay after the $3 discount is applied one time for the entire order
-------------
a more numeric example may be this
Lets say you bought 12 cookies, so x = 12
This means it costs 2*x = 2*12 = 24 dollars total if the discount doesnt apply
However, the 3 dollar discount is there, so the grand total is 24-3 = 21 dollars.
Answer: Choice A) AA postulate; 18
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Work Shown:
The triangles are similar to each other due to the AA (angle angle) postulate. The top angles are overlapping or shared angles. So that's the first pair. The second pair of angles is either bottom pair of angles, from the fact that corresponding angles are congruent. This is only true if the lines are parallel.
Due to the similar triangles, we can set up the proportion and solve for x
8/(8+4) = 12/x
8/12 = 12/x
8*x = 12*12 ... cross multiply
8x = 144
x = 144/8
x = 18
Answer: So if you want to find the total cost (c) for a certain number of months (m) and it costs $35 per month, you just need to multiply the number of months by the cost per month. So
35m=c
If you want to see the units cancel
($35/month)(months)=$
The months will cancel out, and you will be left with total dollars.
Not sure about the second part of your question, but if you wanted to figure out how much it would cost to be a member for 6 months, you would just plug in 6 for m.
35(6)=c
c=210
So $210
Step-by-step explanation:
By definition the area of a rectangle is:
A = l * w
Where,
l: long
w: width
So we have to clear the width:
w = A / l
Substituting the values:
w = (234) / (18) = 13
w = 13 feets
answer
the width, in feet, of the room is 13
Step-by-step explanation:
5. 102 = 6( 1 + 4p)
102 = 6 + 24p
102 - 6 = 24p
96 = 24p
96/ 24 = p
4 = p
