Well, assuming E is the beginning, F is the middle, and G is the end, then

9x+14+56=250
9x=250-(56+14)
9x=250-70
9x=180
9x/9=180/9
X=20

The whole E to G is 250, and it gave you lengths between it

Answer:

Value of x =20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: EF = 9x+14 units , FG = 56 units and EG = 250 units.

Segment Addition Postulates states the following for 3 points that are collinear.

i.e, Let three points A, B and C are collinear and B is between A and C.

i,e AC = AB + BC

By Segment addition postulates; solve for x;

EG = EF + FG

Substitute the given values we get;

250 = 9x + 14 + 56

or

250 = 9x + 70

Subtract 70 on both sides we get;

250 -70 = 9x + 70 -70

Simplify:

180 = 9x

Divide both sides by 9 we get;

\frac{180}{9} = \frac{9x}{9}

Simplify:

x = 20

Therefore, the value of x =20

A guy wire runs from the top of a cell tower to a metal stake in the ground. Marques places a 11-foot tall pole to support the g
astra-53 [7]

The Pythagorean theorem computed shows that the length of the guy wire, to the nearest foot, is 207 ft.

<h3>How to solve the length?</h3>

Here, we have two similar right triangles, ΔABE and ΔCDE.

CD = 11 ft

DE = 2 ft

BD = 35 ft

First, find AB:

AB/11 = (35 + 2)/2

AB/11 = 37/2

Cross multiply

AB = (37 × 11)/2

AB = 203.5 ft

Then, apply Pythagorean Theorem to find AE:

AE = √(AB² + BE²)

AE = √(203.5² + 37²)

AE = 207 ft

Therefore, the length of the guy wire is 207 ft.
