The solutions of the equations for x are given as follows:
a. x = 36.
b. x = 15.
<h3>What is the solution for item a?</h3>
The equation for item a is given by:
x/3 - 5 = 7
Isolating x, we have that:
x/3 = 12
x = 3 x 12
x = 36.
<h3>What is the solution for item b?</h3>
The equation for item b is given by:
x/2 - 5 = 2.5
Isolating x, we have that:
x/2 = 7.5
x = 7.5 x 2
x = 15.
Hence the solutions are:
a. x = 36.
b. x = 15.

I think it’s 36, Are there options??
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Split the polygon into 3 triangles as pictured below
<u>They have base and height:</u>
- 4 and 3, 1 and 1, 3 and 1
<u>Find the area of 3 triangles and add up:</u>
- A = 1/2*4*3 + 1/2*1*1 + 1/2*1*3 = 6 + 1/2 + 3/2 = 8 square units
