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>

Answer: The answer would be B

<u>Write out the equation in slope-intercept form: </u>

y=-5/3x+6 (Once we know that, it'll be easier to convert it into standard form.)

<u>Subtract -5/3 from both sides of the equation:</u>

y+5/3x=6

<u>Subtract 6 from both sides:</u>

y+5/3x-6=0

<u>Multiply both sides by 3 to get rid of the fraction:</u>

3y+5x-18=0

<u>Then arrange the numbers to x and y are on one side by itself:</u>

3y+5x=18

<em>And that's your answer!</em>

Hope this helped you!
