Answer 1

This is the picture of what comes with the question. PLEASE HELP ME

Answer 2

Okay now i can see it better.. nm.

If RS = 36, then 18+2y+6=36

find y first from that. Then we'll find x.

Answer 3

y=12

Answer 4

2y=12

Answer 5

y=6

Answer 6

Yep. Now since AB is bisected it's cut in half... so each of the halves are equal

25-3x=2y+5

and you know y=6 so you can find x.

Answer 7

okay final answer is -8??? im sorry im probably annoying the crap out of you

Answer 8

lol no you're not.

plug in y=6:

25-3x=2*6+5

now try solving this for x

Answer 9

x=8 over 3 or 2.6 repeating??

Answer 10

Yep, looks correct.
