Step-by-step explanation:

x = BD

$\frac{ab}{ad} = \frac{bc}{de} \\ \frac{10}{10 + bd} = \frac{12}{21} \\ 12 \times (10 + bd) = 21 \times 10 \\ 120 + 12bd = 210 \\ 12bd = 210 - 120 \\ 12bd = 90 \\ bd = \frac{90}{12} \\ bd = 7.5 \\$

A man sells a sofa for rs 3210 making a profit of 7% what would have been his profit percent if he had sold it for rs 3360?

Digiron [165]

Let x be the original cost for the sofa.
X x (1 + 0.07) =3210
X = 3000
Now we know the cost for the sofa.
Let p be the profit percent.
3000 x (1 + p) = 3360
P = 0.12
So the percentage profit is 12%

Answer:

I’m pretty sure it’s Triangle ABC is congruent to Triangle DEF.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you rotate Triangle DEF to where the 90 degree angle is on the bottom right, you can the compare the two triangles. You can divide 300/25, 240/20, and 180/15. They all result in 12 meaning they are congruent and similar in that way. (I’m only 90% this is right btw)

ipn [44]

Answer:

A) (-3,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given system of linear equations: </u>

y= x+4
y= -3x-8

---

x + 4 = -3x - 8
x + 3x = - 8 - 4
4x = -12
x = -3

Then

y =-3 + 4 = 1

Solution is (-3, 1)

Correct option is A
