Answer:

YZ =  12, ML = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is half the sum of the parallel bases, that is

YZ = \frac{KN+LM}{2}

4x - 16 = \frac{13+2x-3}{2} ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )

8x - 32 = 10 + 2x ( subtract 2x from both sides )

6x - 32 = 10 ( add 32 to both sides )

6x = 42 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 7

Then

YZ = 4x - 16 = 4(7) - 16 = 28 - 16 = 12

ML = 2x - 3 = 2(7) - 3 = 14 - 3 = 11

Answer:

The bottom is  11

The median is  12

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the average of the top and bottom

(13+ 2x-3) /2 = 4x-16

Combine like terms

(10+2x)/2 = 4x-16

Divide by 2

5+x = 4x-16

Subtract x from each side

5+x-x = 4x-16-x

5 = 3x-16

Add 16 to each side

5+16 = 3x-16+16

21 = 3x

Divide by 3

21/3 = 3x/3

7 =x

The bottom is 2x-3 = 2*7-3 = 14-3 = 11

The median is 4x-16 = 4*7-16 = 28 -16 = 12

What is 2x+19 but dont use factors
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are solving for the equation 2x + 19 = 0, the steps are as follows.

2x+19=0

2x = - 19 (Move the 19 over to the other side)

x = - 9 1/2 (divide both sides by 2 to get x by itself.)

What is 9x + 18 = 6y - 3x for y ​
Nana76 [90]

Answer: 2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

9x+18=6y-3x Our goal is to isolate y.

Let's add 3x to both sides of the equation to cancel out that -3x on the right side.

12x+18=6y Because all of these integers are divisible by the gcf of 6, we can divide both sides of the equation by 6.

2x+3=y
