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

Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2=3x-2(subtract 3x and add 2) x^2-3x+2=0(group) (x-1)(x-2)=0(find x) x=1;x=2
find y values for x values and check:
1^2=1, pair 1:(1,1); 3(1)-2=3-2=1, same pair
2^2=4, pair 2:(2,4); 3(2)-2=6-2=4, same pair
pairs: (1,1);(2,4)
