Hey there!
2x + 2 = -4(x - 5)
2x + 2 = -4(x) - 4(-5)
2x + 2 = -4x + 20
ADD 4x to BOTH SIDES
2x + 2 + 4x = -4x + 20 + 4x
SIMPLIFY IT!
6x + 2 = 20
SUBTRACT 18 to BOTH SIDES
6x + 2 - 2 = 20 - 2
CANCEL out: 2 - 2 because it give you 0
KEEP: 20 - 2 because it help solve for the x-value
NEW EQUATION: 6x = 20 - 2
SIMPLIFY IT!
6x = 18
DIVIDE 6 to BOTH SIDES
6x/6 = 18/6
CANCEL out: 6/6 because it give you 1
KEE: 18/6 because it help solve for the x-value
NEW EQUATION: x = 18/6
SIMPLIFY IT!
x = 3
Therefore, your answer is: x = 3
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Answer:
The correct option is B.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to AAS congruence rule, two triangles are congruent if two angles and a non included side are congruent to corresponding angles and side of another triangle.
We need two angles and a non included side, to use AAS postulate.
In option A, two sides and their inclined angle are congruent, therefore these triangles are congruent by SAS postulate and option A is incorrect.
In option B, two angles and a non included side are congruent, therefore these triangles are congruent by AAS postulate and option B is correct.
In option C, two angles and their included side are congruent, therefore these triangles are congruent by ASA postulate and option C is incorrect.
In option D, all sides are congruent, therefore these triangles are congruent by SSS postulate and option D is incorrect.
