C is the centroid of isosceles triangle ABD with vertex angle ∠ABD. Does the following proof correctly justify that triangles ABE and DBE are congruent? It is given that triangle ABD is isosceles, so segment AB is congruent to DB by the definition of isosceles triangle.
Triangles ABE and DBE share side BE, so it is congruent to itself by the reflexive property.
It is given that C is the centroid of triangle ABD, so segment BE is a perpendicular bisector.
E is a midpoint, creating congruent segments AE and DE, by the definition of midpoint.
Triangles ABE and DBE are congruent by the SSS Postulate.

Triangle ABD with segments BC, DC, and AC drawn from each vertex and meeting at point C inside triangle ABD, segment BC is extended past C with dashed lines so that it intersects with side AD at point E.
There is an error in line 1; segments AB and BC are congruent.
There is an error in line 2; segment BE is not a shared side.
There is an error in line 3; segment BE should be a median.
The proof is correct.

Someone answer asap for ! a discount store’s prices are 25% lower than department store prices. the function c(x) = 0.75x can be used to determine the cost c, in dollars, of an item, where x is the department store price, in dollars. if the item has not sold in one month, the discount store takes an additional 20% off the discounted price and an additional $5 off the total purchase. the function d(y) = 0.80y - 5 can be used to find d, the cost, in dollars, of an item that has not been sold for a month, where y is the discount store price, in dollars. create a function d(c(x)) that represents the final price of an item when a costumer buys an item that has been in the discount store for a month. d(c(x)) =
