Answer:

x = 7

42, 35, 7

Step-by-step explanation:

EG = 5x+7
EF = 5x
FG = 2x-7

Point F is on line segment of EG, therefore EG = EF + FG

5x + 7 = 5x + 2x - 7
2x = 14
x = 7

Then

EG = 5*7 + 7 = 42
EF = 5*7 = 35
FG = 2*7 - 7 = 7

Analyze the diagram below and complete the instructions that follow.

Trava [24]

Law of Cosines says

$b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2 ac \cos B$

$2 a c \cos B = a^2 + c^2 - b^2$

$\cos B = \dfrac{a^2 + c^2 - b^2}{2 a c}$

$\cos B = \dfrac{16^2 + 16^2 - 11^2}{2(16)(16)} = \dfrac{ 391}{512}$

$B = \arccos \dfrac{ 391}{512} \approx 40.2 ^\circ$

Simplify the rational expression. state any restrictions on the variable. n^4-11n^2+30/n^4-7n^2+10

Andrej [43]

For this case we have the following expression:
 $\frac{n ^ 4-11n ^ 2 + 30}{ n ^ 4-7n ^ 2 + 10} 

$
 We are going to make the following change of variables:
 $x = n ^ 2
$
Rewriting the expression we have:
 $\frac{(x ^ 2-11x + 30)}{(x ^ 2-7x + 10)} 

$
Factoring the expression we have:
 $\frac{(x-5) (x-6)}{(x-5) (x-6)} 
$
Canceling similar terms we have:
 $\frac{x-6}{x-2} 
$
Returning the change we have:
 $\frac{n ^ 2-6}{n ^ 2-2} 

$
 The resctrictions of the function are those that make the denominator equal to zero.
We have then:
 $n ^ 2-2 = 0

n = +/- \sqrt{2} 
$
 Answer:
The simplified expression is:
 $\frac{n ^ 2-6}{n ^ 2-2}$
The restrictions are:
 $n = \sqrt{2} 
$
$n = - \sqrt{2}$
