Dora is writing statements as shown to prove that if segment ST is parallel to segment RQ, then x = 12. Statement Reason
1. Segment ST is parallel to segment QR Given
2. Angle QRT is congruent to angle STP Corresponding angles formed by parallel lines and their transversal are congruent
3. Angle SPT is congruent to angle QPR Reflexive property of angles
4. Triangle SPT is similar to triangle QPR Angle-Angle Similarity Postulate
5. (3x + 24):3x = Corresponding sides of similar triangles are in proportion
Which of the following can she use to complete statement 5? (1 point)

Question 3 options:

1) 85:51
2) 3x: 85
3) 3x:51
4) 34:24

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume

number of candles set =x

price of of x candles =p(x)

we are given

a candle maker prices one set of scented candles at $10 and sells an average of 200 sets each week

so, we get point as (200,10)

he finds that when he reduces the price by $1, he then sells 50 more candle sets each week

so, we can find slope

now, we can use point slope form of line

now, we can plug values

we can use point

and find b

now, we can plug it back

and we get

now, we can find revenue

we know that

revenue = price*quantity

so, we get

b. b < 1 might be the correct answer
