The correct answer is D) ABCD ~ NMLK, and x=7.
Based on the way the polygons are marked, A corresponds with N, B corresponds with M, C corresponds with L and D corresponds with K. Using this, we set up a proportion:
12/8 = (5x+1)/(5x-11)
Cross multiplying, we have:
12(5x-11) = 8(5x+1)
Using the distributive property,
12*5x - 12*11 = 8*5x + 8*1
60x - 132 = 40x + 8
Subtract 40x from both sides:
60x - 132 - 40x = 40x + 8 - 40x
20x - 132 = 8
Add 132 to both sides:
20x - 132 + 132 = 8+132
20x = 140
Divide both sides by 20:
20x/20 = 140/20
x = 7
<span>1. You have 3 chances in 12 of picking a pencil ===> 3/12 = 1/4
2 You have 5 chances in 8 of picking a colored pencil ===> 5/8
3. The probability of doing both is the product of the two ===> 1/4 * 5/8 = 5/32 </span>

I multiplied both the numbers and got that, hope this helped
The first one is D and the second is A
Answer: The interest rate is .166%
Step-by-step explanation:
So what I did was divide $50(Amount at the end) by 6 (the number of months). Which would give me the amount of money he made per month ($8.333...). So then $8.333.../$5000(Total $) is .166...% (Interest rate)
