5/12 because 1/1 is a whole, 1, so all you have to do is 1 - 7/12.
[Given]
{ x + y = 6
{ x = y + 4
[Plug-in our x value & solve]
[Given] x + y = 6
[ Plug-in] (y + 4) + y = 6
[Distribute] y + 4 + y = 6
[Combine like terms] 2y + 4 = 6
[Subtract 4 from both sides] 2y = 2
[Divide both sides by 2] y = 1
[Answer]
Third option - (5, 1)
-> You do not need to solve for x since this is the only option that has y = 1, but to solve for x we would do y + 4 = 1 + 4 = 5, so this answer fully checks correctly

Answer:
x = 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we see that sides AD and DC are equal, as well as sides BE and EC, we can use this information to conclude that the value of 2x-7 is equal to double the value of DE.
2x - 7 = 4(2)
2x - 7 = 8
2x - 7 + 7 = 8 + 7
2x = 15
x = 7.5
