Answer:
x=30
Step-by-step explanation:
Please note, that you have a flowchart helping you solve the task - the answer to "how to solve this quesiton" is literally given below the question.
They say that if you first divide x by 2, then add 8, you get 23.
That means that (going backwards) if you start with 23 and subtract 8, then multiply by 2, you get x.
23-8 = 15
15 * 2 = 30
x = 30.
Is there something else to this question?
For example the numbers 45 and 20
There should be a dialogue question. Let's assume we gathered files and they were distributed with a mean of 45 minutes and a standard deviation of 12 minutes.
Now let's assume some random person had to wait less than 20minutes
Now to calculate the z-score we will use

This gives us a z-score of 2.08
{0,1,2,3,4,5} should be the answer
-23/17y < 12/7
y > 12/7 * - 17/23
y > - 204 / 161 or -1 43/161
