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

It’s linear so you map out the first differences and then put it into y=Mx+b form. For the you gotta find the y intercept

Let's find the slope (m) :

$\dfrac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$

$\dfrac{16 - 11}{9 - 6}$

$\dfrac{5}{3}$

slope of given line is 5/3

now, let's plug the value of coordinates of a point lying on the line ( for example : (6 , 11) and slope (m) to find the y - intercept (c) :

$y = mx + c$

$11 = \bigg(\dfrac{5}{ 3} \times 6 \bigg) + c$

$11 = (5 \times 2) + c$

$11 = 10 + c$

$c = 11 - 10$

$c = 1$

value of y - intercept (c) = 1, so our equation will be :

$y = mx + c$

$y = \dfrac{5}{3}x + 1$
