Is 5(b+3) equivalent to 3(b+5)?

No, because using the distributive property, you would get 5b+15  and 3b+15. The number of b you have is different.

hi friend

here is your answer

there are two angles that are alternate interior angle with angle 9

the angle 15 and angle 7 are alternate interior angle with angle 9.

hope it is for you so mark my answer as a brainliest

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl
