Answer:
FG = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
FD is an angle bisector and divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the other 2 sides, that is
= 
( cross- multiply )
54x = 24(x + 10)
54x = 24x + 240 ( subtract 24x from both sides )
30x = 240 ( divide both sides by 30 )
x = 8
Then
FG = x + 10 = 8 + 10 = 18

Answer:
6a-18
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of rectangle = length + length + width + width
To find the combinations, think of two numbers that each multiplied by 2 and added up to give 12 or 14
Rectangle with perimeter 12
Say we take length = 2 and width = 3
Multiply the length by 2 = 2 × 2 = 4
Multiply the width by 3 = 2 × 3 = 6
Then add the answers = 4 + 6 = 10
This doesn't give us perimeter of 12 so we can't have the combination of length = 2 and width = 3
Take length = 4 and width = 2
Perimeter = 4+4+2+2 = 12
This is the first combination we can have
Take length = 5 and width = 1
Perimeter = 5+5+1+1 = 12
This is the second combination we can have
The question doesn't specify whether or not we are limited to use only integers, but if it is, we can only have two combinations of length and width that give perimeter of 12
length = 4 and width = 2
length = 5 and width = 1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rectangle with perimeter of 14
Length = 4 and width = 3
Perimeter = 4+4+3+3 = 14
Length = 5 and width = 2
Perimeter = 5+5+2+2 = 14
Length = 6 and width = 1
Perimeter = 6+6+1+1 = 14
We can have 3 different combinations of length and width
There is a special kind of substitution which some books call it by comparison.
When the two equations are both
y=some function of x
y=some other function of x, then
we can substitute the second equation into the first giving
some function of x = some other function of x and start solving.
For example,
<span>y = –2x + 8
y = x – 1
substitute second into first
x-1=-2x+8
isolate x on left,
3x=9
x=3
second step is to substitute x=3 into second equation to get
y=x-1=3-1=2
Therefore the solution is (3,2)</span>
