You buy a container of cat litter for $12.25 and a bag of cat food for x dollars. The total purchase is $19.08, which includes 6% sales tax. Write and solve an equation to find the cost of the cat food. An equation is "EMPTY" =19.08.

The cat food costs $ "EMPTY".

explanation:

previous steps have made pa≅ pb ≅ st ≅ su. setting the compass width to ab allows you to make tu the same length. then δstu ≅ δpab by the sss congruence postulate, and ∠p ≅ ∠s by the reason cpctc.

option b  

step-by-step explanation:

we know that

the distance from point n to lm in the figure is equal to the distance of the perpendicular line to lm that passes through the point n

so

the distance is equal to the segment no

> given problem

therefore

the distance from point n to lm is equal to
