Step-by-step explanation:
from what I can see there are 2 options to make the 2 triangles congruent :
either the opposite sides must be equal or the neighboring sides must be equal.
so, either
5x = 3x + 10
and
5x - 2 = 4x + 3
or
5x = 4x + 3
and
5x - 2 = 3x + 10
for the first
5x = 3x + 10
2x = 10
x = 5
control
5x - 2 = 4w + 3
5×5 - 2 = 4×5 + 3
23 = 23
correct.
for the second
5x = 4x + 3
x = 3
control
5×3 - 2 = 3×3 + 10
15 - 2 = 9 + 10
13 = 19
no, not a valid solution.
so, x = 5
Answer:
A.) 65x + 35X + 50 = 250
65x = cost of concrete per cubic yard, x is yd³
35X = cost of pouring/finishing concrete per cubic yard, X is yd³
50 = delivery cost
250 = the money you have
B.) 400 + 15n = 505
15n = amount of money you deposite per week, n is # of week
400 = some money in account after n week passed
505 = initial money in bank
C.) 1.1X - 10 = 55
55 = total cost of clothes
1.1X = tax rate where X is the undiscounted clothe cost
10 = discount
