When u say if u can add or subtract I'm not sure what problem ur referring too. But, maybe this might help.
Similar triangles that have a scale ratio other than 1 are not congruent triangles.
The true statement about the proportions of the sides is 
The scale ratio is given as: 5 : 2
And the corresponding sides are given as:
- AB and DE.
- BC and EF.
- CA and FD.
The above highlights mean that,

Hence, the true statement is

Answer:
x+8
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the numerator
list the factors of 16
16: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16
look for two factors that add up to the b value
in this case it is 18
by looking at the factors 2 and 8 add up 10
so you can rewrite the numerator as 
Split the trinomial into two separate binomials each having one of the factors that add up to 10
So it should be 
Factor both binomials
you can factor an x from the first one
Then it is x(x+2)
Factor an 8 from the second one
8(x+2)
So it should be 
This can rewritten as (x+8)(x+2)
So now you have 
simplify it by canceling out the two (x+2)'s
this is because (x+2)/(x+2) is 1
Finally you get x+8
