Answer:
B. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the Midsegment of a trapezoid theorem:
GH = (BC + FE)/2
9x - 3 = (19 + (5x + 1))/2) (substitution)
9x - 3 = (20 + 5x)/2
Cross multiply
2(9x - 3) = 20 + 5x
18x - 6 = 20 + 5x
Collect like terms
18x - 5x = 20 + 6
13x = 26
Divide both sides by 13
x = 26/13
x = 2
I believe if you simply everything, you will get 17381 over 20 or 17381/20
You would set it up like this: 150x + 280 = 255x The you just solve.
Their would be 21 different solutions for this problem
