<em>Greetings from Brasil....</em>

As stated in the statement of the question, EF is a bisector of CD, so point G is the median point of CD, so CG = GD

5X - 1 = 7X - 13

X = 6

EF = EG + GF

6X - 4 = EG + 13      x = 6, so

6·6 - 4 = EG + 13

<h2>EG = 19</h2>

Which represents the solution(s) of the graphed system of equations, y = x2 + x – 2 and y = 2x – 2? (–2, 0) and (0, 1) (0, –2) a
Luda [366]

ANSWER

(0,-2), (1,0)

EXPLANATION

The first equation is

y =  {x}^{2}  + x - 2

The second equation is

y = 2x - 2

We equate both equations to get,

{x}^{2}  + x - 2 = 2x - 2

{x}^{2}  + x - 2x - 2 + 2 = 0

Simplify

{x}^{2}  - x = 0

Factor

x(x - 1) = 0

Either

x = 0

Or

x - 1 = 0

x = 1

Put x=0 or x=1 into the second equation to get,

y =   2(0) - 2 =  - 2

Or

y =   2(1) - 2 =  0

Therefore the solutions are;

(0,-2), (1,0)

The perimeter of a rectangle is 24 centimeters.Its length is 9 centimeters. Find the width
liberstina [14]

Subtract 9 twice.

24-9-9 = 6

Half of 6 is 3, so 3 is the width since adding it twice and adding the length twice gives perimeter.

For the given expression, which whole number (w) will make the expression true? 5/6
Sonja [21]

Answer:

D. 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is a possible complete question

For the given expression, which whole number (w) will make the expression true? 5/6 < w/6

A. 3

B. 4

C. 5

D. 7

Given the inequality expression:

5/6 < w/6

Cross multiply

5×6 < 6×w

30<6w

Divide both sides by 6

30/6 = 6w/6

5<w

Reciprocate both sides(this will change the sense of the inequality)

1/5>1/w

Cross multiply

w > 5×1

w>5

This shows that the value of w is a value greater than 5 but not 5. According to the option, the only value greater than 5 is 7. Hence the whole number (w) that will make the expression true is 7
