For ∆RNM ~ ∆RPQ
=> RN/RP = RM/RQ
=> 7/8 = 10/14 which is wrong
So ∆RMN is not similar to ∆RQP
Answer:
81
Step-by-step explanation:
[character limit thing]
If the price went down $5 per day for four days straight, then it would have went down $20 total after the four days.
1.) expand
3x - 15 - 5x = 25 + 6x
2.) simplify
-2x - 15 = 25 + 6x
3.) add 2x to both sides
-15 = 25 + 6x + 2x
4.) simplify
-15 = 25 + 8x
5.) subtract 25 from both sides
-15 - 25 = 8x
6.) simplify -15 - 25 to -40
-40 = 8x
7.) divide both sides by 8
-40/8 = x
8.) x = -5
