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
The easiest way to think about this is to give all of the numbers common denominators:
1 can be written as 6/6
0 can be written as 0/6
Now we can see that 5/6 is only 1/6 away from 1, while it is 5/6 away from 0.
So, 5/6 is closer to 1!

Step 1: begin by writing the formula for slope intercept form
step2: substitute the given slope for X
step3: use the order pair you given (x,y) and substitute these values for the variables x and y in the equation
step4: solve for y ( y-intercept of the graph)
step5: rewrite the original equation in step 1 substituting the slope for x and the y-intercept for y
