If EF = 4x − 16, FG = 3x − 6, and EG = 27, find the values of x, EF, and FG.

1 answer:

8 0

The summation of the lengths of Ef and FG would give us the length of EG.
This means that:
EF + FG = EG
4x - 16 + 3x - 6 = 27
7x = 27 + 16 + 6
7x = 49
x = 49/7 = 7

Therefore:
EF = 4(7) - 16 = 12 unit length
FG = 3(7) - 6 = 15 unit length

Clare is painting some doors that are all the same size. She used 2 liters of paint to cover

grigory [225]

Answer:

I think it's 1 1/4 liters of paint for one door

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to turn it to an improper fraction

1.) 1 3/5 = 8/5

Then you have to proportion the fraction with the 2 liters (L=liters)

2.) 2/(8/5)

= 10/8 L

3.) Next you convert the fraction to a mixed number

10/8 L --> 8/8 + 2/8 = 1 1/4 L
