Answer 1

Hi x = 13.5 hope it helps!

Answer 2

$\frac{1}{2} (29 - x) = 7.75$

$\frac{1}{2} ( - x + 29) = 7.75$

$\frac{1( - x + 29)}{2} = 7.75$

$\frac{ - x + 29}{2} = 7.75$

$2· \frac{ - x + 29}{2} = 2·7.75$

$- x + 29 = 2·7.75$

$- x + 29 = 15.5$

$- x + 29 = 15.5 - 29$

$- x = - 13.5$

$\frac{ - x} {- 1} = \frac{ - 13.5 }{ - 1 }$

$x = 13.5$

So, the value of x is 13.5.
