3(2(5)+4)-5
3(10+4)-5
30+12-5
42-5
37
Given your ordered pair you would assume a = 5, b = 2
Set up both equations
5 + 2 = 7
7 = 7 (the numbers are equal so this correct)
2(5) - 8 = 2
10 - 8 = 2
2 = 2 (the numbers are equal so this is also correct)
Because both equations work with the ordered pair they <em>are</em><span> the solution of the given system.</span>
Side BC is congruent to side BC.
Using the congruent angles and the angle bisectors, you can get two angles congruent to two other angles, so you use ASA to prove the triangles congruent. Then you use CPCTC to prove the sides congruent.
Answer: C.) ASA
