Answer:

EG = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- If a line bisects another line that means the point of intersection

 divides the second line into two equal parts

∵ EF bisects CD at G

∴ CG = GD

∵ CG = 5x - 1

∵ GD = 7x - 13

∴ 7x - 13 = 5x - 1

* Lets solve the equation

∵ 7x - 13 = 5x - 1

- Subtract 5x from both sides and add 13 to both sides

∴ 7x - 5x = 13 - 1

∴ 2x = 12

- Divide both sides by 2

∴ x = 6

- Point G divides EF into two parts EG and GF

∴ EF = EG + GF

∵ EF = 6x - 4

- Substitute the value of x to find EF

∵ x = 6

∴ EF = 6(6) - 4 = 36 - 4 = 32

∴ EF = 32

∵ GF = 13

- Substitute the values of EF and GF in the equation of EF

∴ 32 = EG + 13

- Subtract 13 from both sides

∴ 19 = EG

* EG = 19

Find the area of the shaded region. With steps
Roman55 [17]

Answer: the area of the shaded region is 72.96 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the area of a circle is expressed as

Area = πr²

Where

r represents the radius of the circle.

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

From the information given,

Diameter of circle = 16 feet

Radius = diameter/2 = 16/2 = 8 feet

Area of circle = 3.14 × 8² = 200.96ft²

The sides of the square are equal. To determine the length of each side of the square, L, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

Therefore,

16² = L² + L²

256 = 2L²

L² = 256/2 = 128

L = √128 ft

Area of the square is

L² = (√128)²

Area = 128 ft²

Area of shaded region is

200.96 - 128 = 72.96 ft²

A business sells kicking tees by mail for 3 each the shipping charge is 5 the function p=n+5 shows how the number of tees n rela
melamori03 [73]

<u>Answer: </u>

When you buy 2 , 3 and 4 tees , price you pay are 10.33 unit price , 13 unit price and 15.667 unit price respectively.

<u>Solution: </u>

Information provided in the question seems to be less . so assuming following two things.

1)Given function p = n + 5 do not include shipping cost as shipping cost is also dependent on number of tees.

2)If shipping charges for 3 tees is 5 , then shipping charges of 1 tee is \frac{5}{3}

When you buy 2 tees , n = 2

Price = p = n+5 = 2+5 = 7

Shipping charges =( \frac{5}{3} ) x 2 = \frac{10}{3}

So total price you pay for two tees = 7 + (\frac{10}{3}) = 7 + 3.3333 = 10.3333 unit price.

When you buy three tees , n = 3  

Price = p = n+5 = 3+5 = 8

Shipping charges =( \frac{5}{3} ) x 3 = 5

So total price you pay for two tees = 8 + 5 = 13 unit price.

When you buy four tees, n = 4  

Price = p = n+5 = 4+5 = 9

Shipping charges =( \frac{5}{3} ) x 4 = \frac{20}{3}

So total price you pay for two tees = 9 + (\frac{20}{3}) = 47/3 = 15.667 unit price.

Hence when you buy 2 , 3 and 4 tees , price you pay are 10.33 unit price , 13 unit price and 15.667 unit price respectively.
