Order these equations to match the steps used to solve the equation 2(5x - 3) = 8. Step 1: Distributive property. Step 2: Addition property of equality
Step 3: Division property of equality
x = 7/5
10x - 6 = 8
10x = 14

x = 7/5 equivalent to 1 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

2(5x - 3) = 8

Step 1: Distributive property.

10x - 6 = 8

Step 2: Addition property of equality

10x - 6 = 8

Add 6 to both sides

10x = 14

Step 3: Division property of equality

Divide both sides by 10 to solve for x

10x = 14

x = 14/10

= 7/5

x = 7/5

f(x) = y

f(-3) = -5

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
