we have that


*-------------------------*--------------------------------*

E                            F                                     G


EF=2x-12

FG= 3x-15

EG=23


we know that


EF + FG = EG


so

[2x - 12] + [3x - 15] = 23 simplify

5x - 27 = 23 add 27 to both sides

5x = 50 divide both sides by 5

x = 10

EF=2x-12-------> EF=2*10-12-------> EF=8

FG= 3x-15------> FG=3*10-15------> FG=15



therefore


the answer part a) is

the value of x is 10


the answer part b) is

the value of EF is 8


the answer part c) is

the value of FG is 15

Answer:

2y + 3 = 4y + 2; y = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

to find this equation we can use the ys and the 1s to create an equation

so

in the left side

there are 2 ys and 3 1s

your equation is

2y + 3

on the other side

it is

4 ys and 2 1s

so

4y + 2 is your equation

then yo uset them equal to each other

2y + 3 = 4y + 2

if you must solve

subtract 2y and 2 from both sides

1 = 2y

then divide both sides by 2

y = 1/2 is your answer
