Translate the sentence into an inequality. twice the difference of a number and 3 is at most -23 use the variable b for the unknown number.

For the difference of a number and 3, you should do b-3 and twice that would be 2(b-3). For this to be at most -23, the inequality would be ≤. Thus,

2(b-3)≤-23

is the answer.

δabc ≅ δdcb by sas because

db ≅ ac . . given (side)

bc ≅ bc . . reflexive property (side)

∠dbc ≅ ∠ acb . . alternate interior angles where transversal bc crosses parallel lines bd and ac (included angle)

definitely a. the others have almost all data points on one side of the line.
