20*1.95 =39 girls
26girls/39girls =0.667
0.667*100 = 66.67%
You see how these 2 angles marked are both inside the 2 parallel lines?
And they are on opposite side of the transversal, the line crossing the 2 parallel lines?
These 2 angles are alternate interior angles and they are equal, I think you can do the last part by yourself.
Answer:
x= -2
Step-by-step explanation: If you feel skeptical about my answer, then you should plug -2 back into the equation to check if it's correct. And it's correct for me when I did it.
ΔABC ~ ΔADE
AC/AE = AB/AD
AC/(AC+15) = 8/18
18AC = 8(AC+15)
18AC = 8AC + 120
18AC - 8AC = 120
10AC = 120
AC = 120/10
AC = 12
