Answer:

4.Angle B =Angle B

Reason: Reflexive property of equality

5.Triangle BDE is similar to triangle BAC

Reason: AA similarity postulate

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle ABC

Segment DE is parallel to segment AC.

1.Segment DE is parallel to AC

Reason: Given

2.Line segment AB is a transversal line which intersects two parallel lines

Reason:Conclusion from statement 1

3.Angle BDE congruent to angle BAC

Reason: Corresponding angles postulate

4.Angle B =Angle B

Reason: Reflexive property of equality

5.Triangle BDE is similar to triangle BAC

Reason: AA similarity postulate

6.BD over BA equals BE over BC.

Reason:When two triangles are similar then the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal

What is x in the equation -3(7-2x)+3=8x-10
damaskus [11]

Answer:

x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

−3(7−2x)+3=8x−10

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−3(7−2x)+3=8x−10

(−3)(7)+(−3)(−2x)+3=8x+−10(Distribute)

−21+6x+3=8x+−10

(6x)+(−21+3)=8x−10(Combine Like Terms)

6x+−18=8x−10

6x−18=8x−10

Step 2: Subtract 8x from both sides.

6x−18−8x=8x−10−8x

−2x−18=−10

Step 3: Add 18 to both sides.

−2x−18+18=−10+18

−2x=8

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x

−2

=

8

−2

x=−4
