6 0

Answer:

5x - 20 is the length of the median

The length of the median = (short side + long side) / 2

5x -20 = (2x +6 + 4x + 2) / 2

5x -20 = (6x +8) / 2

10x -40 = 6x + 8

4x = 48

x = 12

Solve 1/2x-4=7+1/6x

Westkost [7]

Answer:

x=11/2

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x-4=7+1/6x

1/2x-1/6x=7+4

6*1/2x-1/6*6=11 As 6 is the Lcm and we have to multiply it to the fractions.

3x-x=11 As 6 divided by 2 is 3 and 3 multiplied by x is 3x.

2x=11

x=11/2 OR 5 1/2
