I found the pie chart that should accompany this problem, as well as, the choices of answer for this problem.
A $16
B $18
C $20
D $22
E $24
Total production from crude oil: 60 million barrels
Gasoline production: 34%
60 million barrels * 34% = 20,400,000
Total income: $408 million
408,000,000 / 20,400,000 = $20 choice C.
So your answer would be 7 because if you divide 21÷3 your answer would be 7.
<h3>Proof:</h3>
Refer to the attached figure.
There are a couple of ways you can go at this. One is to show the sums of the marked angles are the same, hence ∠B ≅ ∠D. Instead, we're going to show that ΔABD ≅ ΔCDB, hence ∠A ≅ ∠C.
1. AB║DC and BC║AD . . . . given
2. BD is a transversal to both AB║DC and BC║AD . . . . given
3. ∠CBD ≅ ∠ADB . . . . alternate interior angles where a transversal crosses parallel lines are congruent
4. ∠CDB ≅ ∠ABD . . . . alternate interior angles where a transversal crosses parallel lines are congruent
5. BD ≅ BD . . . . reflexive property of congruence
6. ΔABD ≅ ΔCDB . . . . ASA postulate
7. ∠A ≅ ∠C . . . . CPCTC
∠A and ∠C are opposite angles of parallelogram ABCD, so we have shown what you want to have shown.
