X=1/27 decimal form=0.037 repeating
Since we know that 1/4 is equal to 25%, or 0.25 in decimal form, we are able to work with 0.75 in the expression.
We are told to use j as the original price of the jeans, so we can set up the expression:

to represent the cost of the jeans with the discount.
Then to simplify, we simply take out j as a common factor, and solve what's in the parentheses:

or 
Using this equation, we can solve for the b part of the question. If the pair of jeans originally costs $60, plug in 60 to where j is in the expression:


Therefore, the cost of the jeans after the discount is C) $45.
The <em>correct answer</em> is:
The diagonals of the parallelogram are congruent.
Explanation:
In every parallelogram, opposite angles are congruent. This would not mean it is a rectangle.
Consecutive sides of a parallelogram are only congruent if the parallelogram is a rhombus or a square; this would not be a rectangle.
The diagonals of every parallelogram bisect each other. This would not mean it is a rectangle.
The diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other. If we know this is true about our parallelogram, this means our parallelogram is a rectangle.
