Answer:

  4

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property does not appear to be involved in this question.

Let n represent the number of Noah's pencils. Then Andrew's total is ...

  3n +5 = 17

  3n = 12 . . . . . subtract 5 from both sides

  n = 4 . . . . . .  divide both sides by 3

Noah has 4 pencils.

If Point C and D are equidistant from point A, it means that AC and AD are of the same length. AC = AD

</span>AE = AE (S)  (The two triangle shared the same side)
∠CAE = ∠EAD (A) (This angle is between the two sides that we just proved to be equal)
