C) (0.85 + x/100)(250+145) does not give the correct answer.
Explanation
A) works; adding the two costs together is 250+145=395. We multiply this by 0.85 because 100%-15%=85%=0.85. We also have x% tax, which is represented by x/100, added to 100% of the value, or 1.00. Altogether this gives us
395(0.85)(1+x/100) = 395(0.85 + (0.85x/100)) = 395(0.85) + 395(0.85x/100)
= 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x)
B) works; we have 250+145 for the original price; we have 85% = 0.85 of the value; we also have 100% + x%, which is (100+x)/100.
C) does not work; (0.85+x/100)(395) does not take into consideration that you are finding the tax after taking the 85%. This will simplify out to
0.85*395 + (x/100)(395) = 335.75 + 395x/100 = 335.75 + 3.95x, which is too much.
D) works; simplifying the expression from A, we have 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x) = 335.75 + 3.3575x.
Hence they are similar

- <A=<H
- And ratio of sides are same
Hence both triangles are similar by SAS property

<h3><u>(2x - 5)(4x - 3)</u></h3>
The AC method, also known as splitting the middle, can be shown like this:
8x^2 - 26x + 15
<em><u>Check factors of 120.</u></em>
1 * 120
-1 * -120
2 * 60
-2 * -60
3 * 40
-3 * -40
5 * 24
-5 * -24
6 * 20
-6 * -20 (these factors, when added together, are equal to the middle term, and thus splitting the middle term is possible.)
<em><u>Split the middle term.</u></em>
8x^2 - 6x - 20x + 15
<em><u>Group in terms of 2.</u></em>
(8x^2 - 6x) - (20x + 15)
<em><u>Factor each binomial.</u></em>
2x(4x - 3) - 5(4x - 3)
<em><u>Rearrange the terms.</u></em>
(2x - 5)(4x - 3)
The answer to this question would be true.
An odd number wouldn't have any 2 in their factor because it is the definition of odd number, can't be divided by 2. Since they have no probability of having factor 2, then their GCF would not become an even number.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The given figure above is an inscribed quadrilateral with all four vertices lying on the given circle, thereby forming chords each.
Therefore, the opposite angles of the above quadrilateral are supplementary.
This means:
, and
Find the measure of d:
Subtract 57 from both sides.
