Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
standard form is ax + by = c, which is true for the third option.
We know that ∠E = ∠F because of the vertical angle theorem.
Using substitution we get 8x + 8 = 2x + 38
Solve for x.
8x + 8 = 2x + 38
8x = 2x = 30 <-- Subtract 8 from each side
6x = 30 <-- Subtract 2x from each side
x = 5 <-- Divide both sides by 6
So, x is equal to 5.
Multiply 3 to the first bracket then multiply 2 to the second bracket. 3(a+2b) + 2(3a+b) = 3a+6b+6a+2b= 9a+8b
