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

alex41 [277]

Answer:

y has the greatest value.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.23w = t

Divide both sides by 1.23.

w=\frac{t}{1.23}

w=0.813t  --- (1)

1.01x = t

Divide both sides by 1.01.

x=\frac{t}{1.01}

x=0.99t --- (2)

0.99y = t

Divide both sides by 0.99.

y=\frac{t}{0.99}

y=1.01t --- (3)

From (1), (2) and (3), it is clear that y has the greatest value.
