Judging by the question at hand I generated this equation.
x+y=12
x=2y
I begin this question by plugging in the x=2y into the equation for x.
So the new equation should be 3y=12. I then divide the entire equation by 3 to get y=4.
Next I plug y=4 into the equation, the new equation should be x+4=12. I then subtract 4 from both sides to get x=8.
The two numbers are :
x=8 y=4
3x-5 is a midline of that triangle so:

Answer D.
The angle of YWZ is equal to the angle of YWX, and angle WYX is also a right angle due to the congruency of segments WZ and WX.
Every triangle has an angle total of 180 degrees, so angle WXY is equal to
180 - (WYX + YWX)
180 - (90 + 17)
73
Angle WXY has an angle value of 73 degrees.
The variable “x” can be defined as the price of regular gas.
The equation is x = x - (.02)7
x = x - (.02)7
(.02)7 = .14
x = x - .14
X - X = nothing so it just leaves you with -.14
The answer is that the gas price changed by a total of - 14 cents or -0.14
