1. You have that:

 - The<span> lengths of the bases are (6x-1) units and 3 units.
 - The midsegment has a length of (5x-3) units.

 2. To solve this exercise, you must apply the formula for calculate the length of the midsegment of a trapezoid, which is shown below:

 Midsegment=Base1+Base2/2

 As you can see, the midsegment is half the sum of the bases of the trapezoid.

 3. When you substitute the values, you obtain:

 (5x-3)=[(6x-1)+3]/2

 4. Now, you can solve the problem by clearing the "x":
</span>
 (5x-3)=[(6x-1)+3]/2
 2(5x-3)=6x-1+3
 10x-6=6x+2
 10x-6x=2+6
 4x=8
 x=8/4
 x=2

Answer:

8 small tables

Step-by-step explanation:

they told you they have 5 large tables that seat 10 guests and 98 guests are coming. You need to subtract 50 from 98 because after you multiple how many guests can sit at each large table by how many large tables they have it equals 50 so 98-50=48 then you need to divide 48 by six because each small table sits six people so 48/6=8 so you need 8 small tables.
