9. Let p = Pico
3/4p = 18
10. Let h = height with pedestal and foundation
151 + h = 305
11. Let m = Meredith
19 = 3 + 2m
12. Let p = number of pizzas, $5 off is - 5 from regular price
3p - 5 = 21.75
13. Option C.
14. Option A.
15. Let w = last week's miles
w =

(12) + 3
The word "half" tells you to use 1/2 in the equation. The phrase "three more than" tells you to use + 3. We multiply 1/2 by 12 (or divide 12 by 2; it's the same thing) because we are taking half of the miles Carmen ran "this week" as stated in the problem.
Y = 2.5x - 500
I simplified it a bit, you could write it as y = 5x - 2.5x - 500
Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation:
1 1/8 = 1.125
3/4 = .75
Answer:
RS = 20
ST = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
R____S____T
RS + ST = RT
3x - 16 + 4x - 8 = 60
3x + 4x - 16 - 8 = 60
7x - 24 = 60
+24 +24
--------------------------------
7x = 84
/7 /7
---------------------------------
x = 12
Let's use what we got for x to find the length of ST and RS
ST = 4x - 8
= 4(12) - 8
= 48 - 8
ST = 40
RS = 3x - 16
= 3(12) - 16
= 36 - 16
RS = 20
so, RS = 20, ST = 40, and RT = 60
The answer is c sorry if I am not correct
