ED = x - 5 <em>given</em>
DG = 4x - 38 <em>given</em>
ED = DG <em>definition of midpoint</em>
x - 5 = 4x - 38 <em>substitution</em>
-5 = 3x - 38 <em>subtraction property of equality (subtracted x from both sides)</em>
33 = 3x <em>addition property of equality (added 38 to both sides)</em>
11 = x <em>division property of equality (divided 3 from both sides)</em>
ED = x - 5 → ED = 11 - 5 → ED = 6 <em>substitution</em>
since ED = DG, then DG = 6 <em>transitive property</em>
ED + DG = EG <em>segment addition property</em>
6 + 6 = EG <em>substitution</em>
12 = EG <em>simplified like terms</em>
Answer: 12
The percentage of animal wasted is the number of animal wasted over 100
85.7% of the wild caught animals are wasted
<h3>How to calculate the animal wasted</h3>
From the question, we have:
Animals caught = 6 pounds
Salmon = 1 pound
The total weight in the system is:
Total = 6 pounds + 1 pound
So, we have:
Total = 7 pounds
The percent of wild caught animals wasted is then calculated as:
Simplify
Hence, 85.7% of the wild caught animals are wasted

The length of the rectangle is 0.25 or 1/4. This is because the area is equal to 5/8 or 0.625, and the width of the rectangle is 2 1/2 or 0.25. So 0.625/2.5 = 0.25 or 1/4.
I’m not to sure because the picture is blurry
2 and 1/4 = 9/4
4 and 1/12 = 49/12
3 and 2/3 = 11/3
Perimeter = 9/4 + 49/12 + 11/3
= 27/12 + 49/12 + 44/3
= 120/12
= 10inches
