Step-by-step explanation:
I assume
SR = 2x + 23
RQ = x + 21
if that is true, then the situation is completely simple :
14 = (2x + 23) + (x + 21) = 3x + 44
3x = -30
x = -10
SR = 2×-10 + 23 = -20 + 23 = 3
RQ = -10 + 21 = 11
3y - y + 8 - 2 = 20
3y - y = 2y
8 - 2 = 6
2y + 6 = 20
2y = 20 - 6
y = 10 - 3
the answer is: y = 7
As you probably know there is a difference between mean and median -- the mean acts as a measure of the average, and on the other hand median measures the middle number. The median in this is 15 and the mean is also 15.
Jessica solved for the correct value of a, but Sally's review was incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
-7 = y/7
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
- Multiply 7 on both sides: -49 = y
- Rewrite: y = -49
