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

Step-by-step explanation:
A It must be an equilateral triangle with the same side lengths as the original triangle
Answer:
x = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3(9+x) = -5(4-x) ( 2/3times9=6, 2/3timesx=2/3x) ( -5times4=-20,-5timesx=-5x)
6 + 2/3x = -20 -5x ( add 20 on both sides)
26 + 2/3x = -5x ( minus 2/3x on both sides)
26 = -4.6x (divided -4.6x on both sides)
-5.6 = x ( round up)
-6 = x
