Two produce stores sell watermelons by the pound. At Jack's store, he uses the equation y = 0.39x to calculate the cost of a watermelon that
weighs x pounds
At Molly's store, she charges $4.20 for a 12-pound watermelon and $5.25 for a 15-pound
watermelon.
If a watermelon weighs 20 pounds, at which store will the watermelon cost less, and by how
much?
.
A. Jack's store is less expensive by $0.80.
B. Jack's store is less expensive by $0.04.
C. Molly's store is less expensive by $0.80.
D. Molly's store is less expensive by $0.04.

Step-by-step explanation:

have a nice day sir

the answer will be

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
