Given:

FG=5x+2

GH=3x-1

FG=9

Let us draw the line segment as follows,

Equating the length of FG, we get,

\begin{gathered} 5x+2=9 \\ 5x=9-2 \\ 5x=7 \\ x=\frac{7}{5} \end{gathered}

Substitute the value of x in the given value of GH,

\begin{gathered} GH=3x-1 \\ =3(\frac{7}{5})-1 \\ =\frac{21}{5}-1 \\ =\frac{16}{5} \\ =3.2 \end{gathered}

And the total length FH is,

\begin{gathered} FH=FG+GH \\ =9+3.2 \\ =12.2 \end{gathered}

Hence, the lengths are,

\begin{gathered} FG=9 \\ GH=3.2 \\ FH=12.2 \end{gathered}

Make 'y' the subject of the equation. x = 2y -7
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

y = (x + 7)/2

here's your solution

=>. it is given. x = 2y - 7

=> we have to make y as subject

=> now, we can writ this equation in this way

=> 2y - 7 = x

=> now put all constant to right side

=> 2y = x +7

=>. y = x+ 7 /2

hope it helps

In the arithmetic sequence {13,6,−1,−8,…}, what is the common difference? Enter your answer as a number, like this: 42
V125BC [204]

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the common difference, you subtract a term from the term after it. For example, in the problem, you can subtract 13 from 6:

6 - 13 = -7

To check you can do the same thing with other consecutive numbers in the sequence like:

-1 - 6 = -7
