Simplify 3 + (b + 8) = 3 + (8 + b)

b + 11 = 11 + b

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms. Note that because you are adding for all terms, you can technically disregard the parenthesis:

3 + (b + 8) = b + 3 + 8 = b + 11

3 + (8 + b) = 3 + 8 + b = 11 + b

b + 11 = 11 + b (True).

answer

d. 10

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,

answer4 to the second power is 16

and 4 to the third power is 64,
