Answer:
Shane started the problem correctly
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given problem (-5) - (-1 3/4).
Mariah started the problem as (-5) + 1 - 3/4
Shane started the problem as (-5) + 1 + 3/4
We need to find who started the problem correctly.
The problem should be started by converting the mixed fraction into improper fraction i,e

Now we will solve bracket by multiplying -1 with term inside the bracket i.e


Let's compare both the procedures now:
Mariah:



Therefore, Mariah did not start the problem correctly.
Shane:



Therefore, Shane started the problem correctly.
Answer:
A. They're not simalier because two pairs of corresponding angles in the two trapezoids are congurant
solve for x.
4x−5=7+4y
Add 5 to both sides.
4x−5+5=4y+7+5
4x=4y+12
Divide both sides by 4.
4x/4=4y+12/4
x=y+3
