What statement best fills in the last blank of the proof and completes the sentence: " by the substitution property of "

A.        

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that angle A is a right angle and angle B is a right angle. We are asked to choose the correct option that completes the last statement of the proof.

Let us prove that step by step.

First blank:

We have been given that .

Second blank:  

This means that and

Third blank:

By the definition of right angles a right angle is an angle of exactly 90°.

Last blank:  

Substitution property of equality states that if

Hence, by the substitution property of equality .

Therefore, the statement completes the last blank of the proof and option A is the correct choice.  

answer: 7

step-by-step explanation:

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

4x - 6 + 6 = 4x - 6 + 6

4x = 4x

x = x
