The answer should be C. 8 because two times the amount that Charles ate which is 4 equals 8 and 4+8=12

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

let x represent the number of of watermelon slices Charles ate.

2x+x=12

x+x+x=12

3x=12

3x/3=12/3

x=4

Charles ate 4 watermelon slices

If Lisa ate twice the amount Charles ate, that would mean she ate 8.

Since CB || ED and CB = ED,

by the alternate interior angles theorem,
mE = mC, and mD = mB. 

with CB = ED, we can conclude that CBF = EDF, by SAS congruent theorem.

Maria and Edwin have $23.00 each to spend at a book fair, where all students receive a 25% discount. They both want to purchase
KIM [24]

The way Maria calculates the final price of the book is correct. We know that the book normally sells for $26.50 plus a 10% sales tax. We also know that the students will receive an additional 25% discount. We must understand that the sales tax is applied to the discounted price. So first we will calculate 25% of 26.50 and subtract it from that amount. So the price will then be: (26.50 - 6.625). The price is now $18.34. Then to calculate the tax, it will be (10% * 18.34), so 1.834. We add this amount to the discounted price so: (18.34+1.834) = 20.12.


The final price of the book is $20.12 and Maria can get it and still save a little money
