Answer:

MG = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles EML and EGF are similar thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{EM}{EG} = \frac{EL}{EF} , and substituting values

\frac{16}{5x+2} = \frac{28}{126} ( cross- multiply )

28(5x + 2) = 2016 ( divide both sides by 28 )

5x + 2 = 72 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

5x = 70 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 14

Thus

EG = 5x + 2 = 5(14) + 2 = 70 + 2 = 72

Hence

MG = EG - EM = 72 - 16 = 56

without using a calculator decide which option is better value for money: 300g Jelly beans $5.80 or 500g Jelly beans $9.90
yarga [219]

Answer:

500g Jelly beans $9.90

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the values.

Let's know how much a gram will cost in each case

300g Jelly beans $5.80

1g = 5.8/300

1 g = 0.01933

500g Jelly beans $9.90

1g = 9.9/500

1g =0.0198

It's obvious that the second one has more value placed on it as it cost more per gram
