How can you tell if an equation will have a certain answer?

Check whether the given value is a solution to the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

If the numbers you get from evaluating the two expressions are the same, then the given value is a solution of the equation (makes the equation true). If the numbers don't match, the given value is not a solution of the equation (makes the equation false).

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
