Answer:
Let's solve for x.
2x−y=−5
Step 1: Add y to both sides.
2x−y+y=−5+y
2x=y−5
Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.
2x/2=y-5/2
Answer:
x=1/2y+-5/2
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
x = 12
y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 16
x - y = 8
y + 8 = x
Replace x with y + 8 in the new equation
8 + 2y = 16 ----> we can minus 8 on both sides
2y = 8 -----> divide both sides by 2
y = 4
Now for the x value
x + 4 = 16 ----> minus 4 on both sides
x = 12
19. What you know is that HK+KJ = HJ. If HJ = 25, the sum of the two equations will equal this length.
x-5+5x-12=25 First, combine your like terms. You will end up with 6x-17=25. Add the opposite of -17 to both sides. 6x = 42 Divide both sides by 6. x = 7. Substitute x=7 for your original expression of x-5, 7-5=2
20. (5x-6)/2 = x+6 Multiply each side by 2. 5x-6 = 2x +12 Add 6 to each side 5x = 2x + 18 then subtract 2x from both sides as well. 3x = 18 Finally divide each side by 3. x=6 To find the length of the remaining segment, substitute this value into (5x-6)/2. This results in each side equaling a distance of 12.
21. On the number line, the distance of FG is 16 units. If the distance of FP is 1/4 of FG, you would simply divide 16 by 4. The distance of FP is 4 and P lies at 8 on your number line.
23. The distance of SP is x+4 and ST=4x. Since P is the midpoint, you only have one half of the line as x+4, if you were to double it, you would find that 2x+8 = 4x. Balance and solve for x, subtract 2x from both sides. 8=2x Divide each side by 4, 8/4 = 4x/4 resulting in x=2. If ST equals 4x, substitute and solve, 4(2) = 8
If you meant MG=33
X= 6.8571428571
