Answer:

It can be any two numbers that sum up to 36.

eg:18+18,30+6,15+21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Let Benjamin's age be x and David's age y.

x+y=36

2x+2y=72

Solution:

As twice of 36=72, any two numbers that add up to 36 ,will give a sum of 72 after multiplying them with 2.Therefore ,Benjamin's and David's age can be any set of numbers that sum up to 36.

Answer:Benjamin’s age = 30 and David’s age = 6

Explanation:

Let x be the age of Benjamin
Let y be the age of David

x + y = 36

And 2x + 2y = 72

If we plug 30 for x and 6 for y we get:

30 + 6 = 36
36 = 36

2(30) + 2(6) = 72
60 + 12 = 72
72 = 72

The missing diagram is attched with the answer.

<h3>What is a Triangle ?</h3>

A triangle is a polygon with three sides , three vertices and three angles.

SAS will be used to prove the congruence of ΔABR ≅ ΔACR

In both the triangle we have a common side , AR

AB = AC (given)

∠ B A R =  ∠R A C ( given equal)

So as the two side and the included angle is equal

Therefore the ΔABR ≅ ΔACR are congruent by SAS theorem

Option D is the correct answer.
