Let w = washer and d = dryer:
w + d = $770,
but w = d + 70, replace w with d+70
(d+70) + d = 770
2d + 70 =770
2d = 770 -70 = 700
and d=$350, then w=350+70 = 420
37.01 for Jayna.
36.91 for Myriam.
36.78 for Riley.
The answer would be "<span>3(4a + 2) = 12a + 6". With the distributive property, the number outside of the parenthesis is multiplied to each component inside the parenthesis individually. Ex: 3x4a=12a, 3x2=6.</span>
Explanation:
There may be a more direct way to do this, but here's one way. We make no claim that the statements used here are on your menu of statements.
<u>Statement</u> . . . . <u>Reason</u>
2. ∆ADB, ∆ACB are isosceles . . . . definition of isosceles triangle
3. AD ≅ BD
and ∠CAE ≅ ∠CBE . . . . definition of isosceles triangle
4. ∠CAE = ∠CAD +∠DAE
and ∠CBE = ∠CBD +∠DBE . . . . angle addition postulate
5. ∠CAD +∠DAE ≅ ∠CBD +∠DBE . . . . substitution property of equality
6. ∠CAD +∠DAE ≅ ∠CBD +∠DAE . . . . substitution property of equality
7. ∠CAD ≅ ∠CBD . . . . subtraction property of equality
8. ∆CAD ≅ ∆CBD . . . . SAS congruence postulate
9. ∠ACD ≅ ∠BCD . . . . CPCTC
10. DC bisects ∠ACB . . . . definition of angle bisector
