To find the value of x we can take the two, CD or DE and set them equal to CE.
First step is set the lines equal to each other:
Now we combine like terms:
Then we subtract 7x from both sides:
Add 6 to both sides:
Lastly we divide both sides by 2:
So the value of x would have to be 5.
Hope I helped,

Answer:
7 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the total number of pages in the book are 16
The number of pages esteban already read are 9
Let the number of pages left out to read be x
Total number of pages = number of pages read + number of pages to be read
16=9+x
x=16-9
x=7 pages
Therefore There are 7 pages left out to be read.
When we solve these equations x= 7.5 and y= 1.5.
