Start by distributing the 3 through the parenthses on the left side.

This gives us 3x - 15 = 30.

Now add 15 to both sides to end up with 3x = 45.

Dividing both sides by 3, we fin that <em>x = 15</em>.

Answer:

x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x-5)=30

First, you would distribute the three to the x and the negative five.

3x-15=30

Then you would add 15 to the 15 to cancel it and to the 30 to make it even.

3x-15=30

+15=+15=

3x=45

Finally, you would divide 3 into both sides, cancelling out the three and fiving you,

x=15

Hope this helped!

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement:

2-) ∠BAC = ∠EDC

<em>Reason:</em>

Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal (Alternate Interior Angles Theorem)

Statement:

3-) AC = CD

<em>Reason:</em>

CPCTC ("Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent")

Statement:

4-) ∠BCA = ∠DCE

<em>Reason:</em>

Vertical Angles Theorem (states that vertical angles, angles that are opposite each other and formed by two intersecting straight lines, are congruent)

Statement:

5-) triangle ABC = triangle DEC

ASA Postulate

The ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) postulate states that if two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent. (The included side is the side between the vertices of the two angles.)
