Answer:

Julian's height is equal to x-7

Explanation:

If we knew what his sister's height was, we would subtract 7 from that so we replace what we don't know with x and subtract 7.

Answer:

x - 7

Explanation:

Because Julian is 7 inches shorter than his sister, and his sister's height is x, if we subtract 7 from x, we get Julian's height, x - 7.
