Answer:
m∠FXM = 24°
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem has a lot of extra data that has no relation to the question. You can basically ignore any business about isosceles triangles and congruent segments.

The only thing you need to know is the angle sum theorem:
m∠FXM + m∠MXA = m∠FXA
Filling in the numbers, you get ...
m∠FXM + 72° = 96°
m∠FXM = 96° -72° = 24°
The measure of angle FXM is 24°. (matches choice A)
311(1.50)+.50x=385.50
would be your equation
Well if he made 10 in 4 hours, that means he made 5 in 2 hours. after 2 hours he had 30 cards, so that means he started with 25 cards. Mr. Cringle is making 2 and 1/2 cards per hour.
It starts at 100% - 15% = 85% after the first year. $15,000*0.85 = $12,750
The second year is further reduced 100% - 16% = 84%
$12,750*0.84 = $10,710
