<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The property is </u><u>addition property</u>

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The addition property of equality tells us that adding the same number to each side of an equation gives us an equivalent equation

For instance

if a−b = c, then a−b+b = c+b, or a=c+b

The same goes to the given problem too  if x=4 then x+12=16

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: the addition property

<h2>Why?</h2>

Addition property states that:

if: a=b

Then,

a+c=b+c

So,

Let:

a=x=4\\b=4\\c=12

So,

x+12=b+12\\4+12=4+12\\16=16

Have a nice day!

A<br> 9x - 40<br> B<br> 3x + 20<br> x = [?]
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

9x - 40 = 3x + 20

<u>9</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>3</u><u>x</u> - 40 = <u>3x - 3x</u> + 20

6x - 40 = 20

6x <u>-</u><u> </u><u>40</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>40</u> = <u>20</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>40</u>

6x = 60

<u>6x</u><u> </u><u>/</u><u> </u><u>6</u> = <u>60</u><u> </u><u>/</u><u> </u><u>6</u>

x = 10

Now plug the x value in the equation to make the statement true that A is parallel to B.

9x - 40

<u>9</u><u>(</u><u>10</u><u>)</u> - 40

<u>90</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>40</u>

50

3x + 20

<u>3</u><u>(</u><u>10</u><u>)</u> + 20

<u>30</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>20</u>

50

Therefore, x = 10 making the statement true that A is parallel to B. Hope this helps and stay safe, happy, and healthy, thank you :) !!

Given: AB parallel to DC prove: ABE ~ DCE
slava [35]
The reasons would be:

alternate interior angles
vertical angles
AAA (all angles are congruent)

Since we know that the two line segments are parallel, this means that BC is a transversal.  Using that knowledge with the position of ABE and DCE, we see these are alternate interior angles.

AEB and DEC are vertical angles, since they share only a vertex.

This gives us 3 congruent angles, so the triangles must be similar.
