Chef Charming and his mother sell cheese steak sandwiches at their food truck. They use fresh onions, and cook them slowly to caramelize them before putting them on their sandwiches.  Charming found a pre-cooked onion that was $10.0 per pound AP$, with 100% Yield. He wants to save money but isn’t sure if that is a better deal than cooking the fresh onions himself.  He currently pays an AP$ of $2.55 per pound for fresh onions, but his yield is 50% after peeling and cooking the onions.  What is the EP$ for the fresh onions, after caramelizing?

c is the correct answer

step-by-step explanation:

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.

i’m sorry but i don’t know sorry
