Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

OB is the perpendicular bisector of AD

Perpendicular bisector divides the line segment into two equal parts.

Thus, AO=OD

We can see in figure that attached.

So, we will equate both expression equal and solve for x

2x+5=3x-5

3x-2x=5+5

x=10

Hence, The value of x is 10

As OB is the perpendicular bisector of AD. So AO = OD
Hence 2x + 5 = 3x – 5
3x – 2x = 5 + 5
<span>x = 10</span>

You get tired of the sand and head up to the amusement park. You can purchase 20 ride tickets for $14 or you can purchase 30 rid

Helga [31]

Answer:

The one with the better deal would be 30 ride tickets for $22.50 this is because you pay less money for more rides.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you divide 20 by 14. Doing this will give you the cost of a ride per ticket.

20/14 = 1.42

Then you do the same thing to 30 and 22.50.

30/22.50 = 1.30

Last you compare which deal has less money per ride.

1.42 > 1.30
