Explain a common error for the following problem and also solve the problem.

(5x + 2y) - (15x +4y)

what is the property that you are applying in this problem above?

1. 2. ∠b and ∠y are right angles. 3.? 4.? which two statements are missing in steps 3 and 4? ∠x ≅ ∠c △abc ~ △zyx by the sas similarity theorem. ∠b ≅ ∠y △abc ~ △zyx by the sas similarity theorem. = 2 △abc ~ △zyx by the sss similarity theorem. = 2 △abc ~ △zyx by the sss similarity theorem.
