5x - (2x - 1) = 2

Distribute the - sign.

5x - 2x + 1 = 2

Combine like terms.

3x + 1 = 2

Subtract 1 from both sides.

3x = 1

Divide both sides by 3

x = 1/3 or 0.33

If G is the midpoint of FH find FG<br>fg=11x-7 gh= 3x+9

gavmur [86]

Solution:

we are given that

If G is the midpoint of FH, it mean that

$FG=GH$

we are also given that

$FG=11x-7 ,GH= 3x+9$

So we can write

$11x-7=3x+9\\
\\
11x-3x=7+9\\
\\
8x=16\\
\\
x=2$

So $FG=11x-7=11*\frac{1}{2}-7=11*2-7=15$
