Explanation: In the first instance, you can cancel out the 2 in the numerator and denominator, which leaves you 9(x+1) + {y(z-1)}. You can then simplify to get 9x+9+yz-y
In the second instance, you distribute 9 to what is inside the parentheses, and get 9x+1. You then distribute 2y to what is inside the parentheses within the brackets and get 2yz-2y. You are then left with 9x+9+2yz-2y over 2
B) 40 because if you add the two angles at the bottom which are shown to be congruent, then subtract 180 from the sum of those two, then you are left with your answer
