Answer:
Given the statement:
9 less than the sum of x and 5
"Sum of x and 5" means 
"
" means subtract
then;
the statement 9 less than the sum of x and 5 becomes;
⇒
⇒
Therefore, the expression for the given statement is 
If it’s a triangle then it has to equal 180
so 48+54+x=180
48+54=102
180-102=x
x=78

1/3 because there are 3 people and only one correct answer
In order to develop an equation, let's use the slope-intercept form of the linear equation:

Using the points (3, 13.5) and (5, 18.5) from the table, we have:

Subtracting the second and the first equation:

Now, finding the value of b:

So the equation that represents this table is y = 2.5x + 6
Looking at the options, the correct one is E (none of the above).
