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:

B. (3, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given vertices of triangle:</u>

A(1, 2), B(3, 4), C(5, 0)

<u>The centroid is found as the average of x- and y- coordinates of three vertices:</u>

C = ((x₁ + x₂ + x₃)/3, (y₁ + y₂ + y₃)/3)

<u>Substitute the coordinates into formula:</u>

C = ((1 + 3 + 5)/3, (2 + 4 + 0)/3) = (3, 2)

Correct choice is B
