Answer:

B *second one down.

Step-by-step explanation:

EF = 1/2(AB + CD)

x+5 = 1/2 (2x + 2 + 2x+4)   Combine the like terms on the right.

x+5 = 1/2 (4x + 6)                Remove the brackets.

x+5 = 1/2*4x + 1/2*6

x+5 = 2x + 3                       Subtract x from both sides

5 = 2x-x + 3

5 = x + 3                            Subtract 3 from both sides

5-3 = x

x = 2

EF = x + 5

EF = 2 + 5

EF = 7

The answer is B

How do you solve this

5/(6x-2)=-1/(x+1)
You have to multiply both sides by the denominators so it becomes:
5*(x+1)=-1*(6x-2)
5x+5=-6x+2
3=x

This applies to the second one as well, if you need any more help, feel free to message me :)
