32. The price of a box of tarts is $1 cheaper than that of a loaf of bread. If 3 times the price of a loaf of bread is $29.5 more than half of the price of a box of tarts, find the price of a box of
tarts.
A. $4.3
B. $7.7
C. $9.84
D. $13

$8.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of a bread = x

Let the price of a tarts = x - 1

If 3 times the price of a loaf of bread is $29.5 more than half of the price of a box of tarts. This can be represented as:

3 × x = 1/2 × (1 - x) + 29.5

3x = 0.5 - 0.5x + 29.5

3x + 0.5x = 29.5 + 0.5

3.5x = 30

x = 30/3.5

x = 8.6

c.   x=2.4cm

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.

c - they will have the same distribution

this is the only one that could make sense. : )
