Question

Will literally take a minute to solve but I don’t understand can someone help solve for x and show how ASAP

Answer 1

8

Explanation:

um this equals x+1=2x-7

which then x = 8

Answer 2

Explanation:

I have to assume that M is the midpoint of IG. Otherwise the problem can't be solved.

(x + 1)/2 = (2x -- 7)/2 Multiply both sides by 2. The 2s disappear.

x + 1 = 2x - 7 Add 7 to both sides.

x + 1 + 7 = 2x Combine

x + 8 = 2x Subtract x from both sides

8 = 2x - x Combine

8 = x
