MKL = 83, JKL = 127, JKM = 9x - 10 <em>given</em>
JKL + MKL = JKM <em>angle addition postulate</em>
127 + 83 = 9x - 10 <em>substitution</em>
210 = 9x - 10 <em>simplify (add like terms)</em>
220 = 9x <em>addition property of equality</em>
= x
$ 5 is taken is off the regular price
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that, Regular price of the soccer ball is $ 25
During the sale, it is 20 percent off
Let "x" be the amount that is taken off the regular price
Regular price = $ 25
Discount = 20 percent off
Which means, 20 % of regular price is taken off
x = 20 % of regular price
x = 20 % of 25
Thus $ 5 is taken is off the regular price
