2 equivalent expressions to represent the area of a rectangle and the top is n-3 and the side is 2

area of the rectangle = length * width

given length = n - 3

width = 2

replace it in the area

so area of the rectangle = (n-3) *2

= 2(n-3)

one of the expression is 2(n-3)

to get another expression we distribute 2 inside the parenthesis

2(n-3) is 2n - 6

so another expression is 2n - 6

two equivalent expression are

2(n - 3)   , 2n - 6

the transitive property of equality.

step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is:

the transitive property of equality.

explanation:

we know that  ∠bcd is congruent to  ∠pbc. we also know that  ∠pbc is congruent to  ∠bad.

we can substitute  ∠bad for  ∠pbc in the first angle congruence statement to give us:

∠bcd is congruent to  ∠bad.

algebraically, the transitive property states if a=b and b=c, then a=c. it basically allows us to substitute equal values. since that is what we did, this is the transitive property.
