Question

Hi if you can help me that’d be great! Just show me the work/steps you took to answering the question and your explanation!

Answer 1

x = 7

y = 16

upper 2 sides = 12

lower 2 sides = 19

Explanation:

2x + 5 = x + 12

combine like terms:

x = 7

y - 4 = x + 5

y - 4 = 7 + 5

combine like terms:

y = 16

Upper sides = 7 + 5 = 12

Lower sides = 7 + 12 = 19
