EG is the whole thing.
This means that EF + FG = EG

<span>EF=2x-5
</span><span>FG=3x-6
</span><span>EG=19

Now all you do is plug in the numbers.
(2x - 5) + (3x - 6) = 19
5x - 11 = 19
5x = 30
x = 6

Now plug that x into EF and FG.
</span>EF = 2x - 5
EF = 2(6) - 5
EF = 12 - 5
EF = 7

FG = 3x - 6
FG = 3(6) - 6
FG = 18 - 6
FG = 12

So your answers are:
x = 6
EF = 7
FG = 12
<span>d. x = 6, EF = 7, FG = 12</span>

Shortcuts?:)<br> Find dy/dx<br> y=-3x^7
Lostsunrise [7]
Knowing the power rule:
dx*n*x^(n-1) all you'd need to do is bring the 7 down and multiply it by -3, then subtract 1 from 7. Because dx is 1 you don't need to worry about it (you'll use chain rule for that)
So your final answer should be dy/dx= -21x^6
