-8/5x - 6 = -54....multiply by 5 to get rid of fractions
-8x - 30 = - 270
-8x = -270 + 30
-8x = - 240
x = -240/-8
your answer is 30
1/2x-2/5=3/5 (BTW I got 2/5 by reducing 4/10)
1/2x=7/5 (BTW I got 7/5 by moving 2/5 to the other side)
Then do 7/5 times 2 and you get 14/5
14/5

You can use the ASA postulate which means angle side angle. if 2 angles and the including side are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle then the triangles are congruent. hope that helps :)
