Ten (10) more than (+) half (\frac{1}{2}) of a number (x) is (=) eight (8) less than (-) twice (2 x ) the number (x).

\frac{1}{2}x + 10 = 2x - 8   Multiply both sides by 2
x + 20 = 4x - 16   Subtract x from both sides
20 = 3x - 16         Add 16 to both sides
36 = 3x                Divide both sides by 3
12 = x

W(1,8),X(7,8),Y(4,5), and Z(1,2) select all methods you can use to prove WYZ is congruent to WYX
marin [14]
The distance between two points (x₁,y1),(x₂,y₂) is d
d= \sqrt{(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2}

For the given problem we have
<span>W(1,8),X(7,8),Y(4,5), and Z(1,2)

The length of WY = </span>\sqrt{(4-1)^2 + (5-8)^2} = 3√2
The length of WX = \sqrt{(7-1)^2 + (8-8)^2} = 6
The length of WZ = \sqrt{(1-1)^2 + (2-8)^2} = 6
The length of XY = <span><span>\sqrt{(4-7)^2 + (5-8)^2} = 3√2
</span>The length of ZY = </span><span>\sqrt{(1-4)^2 + (2-5)^2} = 3√2

∴ WX = WZ  ⇒⇒⇒ proved
    XY = ZY   ⇒⇒⇒ proved
    WY = WY  ⇒⇒⇒ reflexive property

∴ Δ</span><span>WYZ is congruent to ΔWYX by SSS method</span>

Which equation demonstrates the distributive property?
Art [367]

The correct option of your question is D

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the sum we need to understand the distributive property

a×(b+c) = a×b + a×c

Here,

Option D is given as

RHS = 5(3+8) [ a=5, b=3 and c=8]

=15 + 40

= LHS

It satisfies the distributive property.

You can cross check the property with the other options.

D is the correct option.
