(x , 5/2)......so y = 5/2.....so do some subbing

y = x - 1/2
5/2 = x - 1/2....add 1/2 to both sides
5/2 + 1/2 = x
6/2 = x....reduce
3 = x

now check it...(3, 5/2)
y = x - 1/2
5/2 = 3 - 1/2
5/2 = 6/2 - 1/2
5/2 = 5/2 (correct)

so x = 3 <==

Answer:

AB = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is isosceles then the legs are congruent, that is

BC = BA, substitute values

5x - 10 = 3x - 4 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

2x - 10 = - 4 ( add 10 to both sides )

2x = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 3

Thus

AB = 3x - 4 = 3(3) - 4 = 9 - 4 = 5

Answer:

y = 6.50x + 6 or 71 = 6.50x + 6

10 people are the max you can invite

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the simple equation

y = 6.50x + 6

6.50x because it it per person

6 because it is a flat one time charge

We want the max to be 71 so that will be our y

71 = 6.50x + 6

We are now going to solve for x

65 = 6.5x

x = 10

Hope it helps! (:

mina [271]

Answer:

M=5+20

Step-by-step explanation:

I’m using M for representing Micah’s age.

This would represent Micah’s age because it says that Micah is 20 years older than Jackson, who is 5. Therefore, you would just need to add 5 and 20 together. Micah is 25 years old.
