If line q bisects EG at point T, and if ET= 1/3 x and TG= x-2, then find EG
kvasek [131]

Answer:

EG = 2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that line q bisects EG at T , then

ET = TG  ( substitute values )

\frac{1}{3} x = x - 2 ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction )

x = 3x - 6 ( subtract x from both sides )

0 = 2x - 6 ( add 6 to both sides )

6 = 2x ( divide both sides by 2 )

3 = x

Then

ET = \frac{1}{3} x = \frac{1}{3} × 3 = 1

TG = x - 2 = 3 - 2 = 1

Thus

EG = ET + TG = 1 + 1 = 2 units

If two boxes of cereal and a jug of milk cost $8.50, and three boxes of cereal and two jugs of milk cost $14.00, how much does a
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

$3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the cost of a box of cereal and let m represent the cost of a jug of milk.

Create a system of equations:

2c + m = 8.5

3c + 2m = 14

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by -2:

-4c - 2m = -17

3c + 2m = 14

Add them together and solve for c:

-c = -3

c = 3

So, a box of cereal costs $3

The equation y = 1.55x + 110,419 approximates the total cost, in dollars, of raising a child in the United States from birth to
Mariana [72]

Answer:

The answer to your question is The cost to raise a child from birth to 17 years in a household is $194119.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

                      y = 1.55x + 110,419

Annual income = $54,000

To solve this problem just substitute the annual income and simplify to find the cost.

                    y = 1.55(54,000) + 110419

Simplify

                    y = 83700 + 110419

Result

                    y = $194119
