Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle 1 = 8x - 17
Angle 2 = 5x + 19
These are congruent which means they are the same so the equation is:
8x - 17 = 5x + 19
3x - 17 = 19
3x = 36
x = 12
I would say it would most certainly have to be B
So if the combined revenues were $51 billion. Then it would be best to divide that between the two companies as a starting point. Each company would have $25.5 billion if they were split 50-50. Since PepsiCo has 9 billion more than Coca-Cola. Simply take PepsiCo's value and add $9 billion to it, which would be $34.5 billion. Finally, take $51 billion, subtract it $34.5 billion, which is PepsiCo's value to get Coca-Cola's value, which is 16.5 billion for me.
