He used distributive property
Y= 2.50(x) + $20 is the linear equation
If 15 videos are rented
Y=2.50(15) + $20
Y= $57.50
67.50 = 2.50(x) + 20
19= x
19 videos were rented in 3 months
Given:
Consider the completer question is "If ∆BTS≅∆GHD, BS=25, TS=14, BT=31, GD=4x-11, m∠S=56, m∠B=21 and m∠H=(7y+5), find the values of x and y.
To find:
The values of x and y.
Solution:
We have,
(Given)
(CPCTC)



Divide both sides by 4.

In ∆BTS,
(Angle sum property)




Now,
(CPCTC)



Divide both sides by 7.

Therefore, the value of x is 9 and value of y is 14.
<span>Simplifying
(5b + -9) + -3(8 + -2b) = 0
Reorder the terms:
(-9 + 5b) + -3(8 + -2b) = 0
Remove parenthesis around (-9 + 5b)
-9 + 5b + -3(8 + -2b) = 0
-9 + 5b + (8 * -3 + -2b * -3) = 0
-9 + 5b + (-24 + 6b) = 0
Reorder the terms:
-9 + -24 + 5b + 6b = 0
Combine like terms: -9 + -24 = -33
-33 + 5b + 6b = 0
Combine like terms: 5b + 6b = 11b
-33 + 11b = 0
Solving
-33 + 11b = 0
Solving for variable 'b'.
Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '33' to each side of the equation.
-33 + 33 + 11b = 0 + 33
Combine like terms: -33 + 33 = 0
0 + 11b = 0 + 33
11b = 0 + 33
Combine like terms: 0 + 33 = 33
11b = 33</span>
