Answer:
it would be B
Step-by-step explanation:
it is B because when you add 1.5 to 8 you get 9.5. when you add 1.5 to 12 you get 13.5. and when you add 1.5 to 16 you get 17.5.

Answer:
6. x = 3
8. x = -7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the number in place of the expression it is equal to, then solve for x.
__
6) g(x) = -x +5
2 = -x +5 . . . . . . . . . g(x) is replaced by 2, because g(x) = 2
x +2 = 5 . . . . . . . . . . add x to both sides
x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2 from both sides
__
8) n(x) = -2x -21
-6 = -2x -21 . . . . . n(x) is replaced by its equal: -6
3 = x +10.5 . . . . . . divide both sides by -2
-7.5 = x . . . . . . . . . subtract 10.5 from both sides

<em>Additional comment</em>
We have shown a couple of ways these equations can be solved. You can separate the x-term and the constant terms before you divide by the x-coefficient, or you can do it after. In the first equation, we could have solved it ...
2 -x +5
-3 = -x . . . . subtract 5
3 = x . . . . . . multiply by -1
The way we did it avoids negative numbers.
Answer:
DC = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The wrong equation was used.
The right equation to use based on the midsegment theorem of a trapezoid is:
MN = ½(AB + DC)
MN = 8
AB = 14
Substitute
8 = ½(14 + DC)
Multiply both sides by 2
8*2 = ½(14 + DC)*2
2*8 = 14 + DC
16 = 14 + DC
16 - 14 = 14 + DC - 14
2 = DC
DC = 2
