Answer: If
and
, then 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be "a", "b", and "c" all real numbers, the Transitive property of equalities states that :
If
and
, then 
You can observe that if two numbers are equal to the same number, then all this numbers are equal to each other.
For example, applying the Transitive property of equalities to:
and 
You can equate them:

And solve for "x":

I will show you how to do first one but it is simple addition and subtraction.
7y + 5 + (3 - y)
We just combine like terms
7y - y + 5 + 3
6y + 8
I will do the second one for subtraction
5 + 5q - (3q - 9)
since the subtracroon sign is outsiDr patenthesis you have to apply it to both terms
5 + 5q - 3q + 9
since it was -9 it became --9 which is +9
so:
5q - 3q + 5 + 9
2q + 14
Answer:
D) 45 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The two triangles are shown below.
Given:
BC = 60 ft, CD = 24 ft and DE = 18 ft.
Since, the two triangles are similar, their corresponding sides are in proportion.
So, 
Now, consider the proportion of sides,

Therefore, the distance between A and B is 45 ft.
I dont understand it. I dont think that they are sentances.
