@blondie :)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Hint: QR = (MN + OP)/2 x+12 = (17 + 5x - 14)/2 solve for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah but then what do you do? :)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

x+12 = (17 + 5x - 14)/2 2(x+12) = 17 + 5x - 14 2(x+12) = 5x + 3 2x + 24 = 5x + 3 I'll let you finish up

so then do you do, 7x divided by 21? which equals 3? :)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

more like 2x + 24 = 5x + 3 24 = 5x + 3 - 2x 24 = 3x + 3 24 - 3 = 3x 21 = 3x 3x = 21 x = ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7! :)
