Answer:

 w = 2, EF = 30 , FG = 42

Explanation:

We have EF = 5w + 20  and FG = 7w + 28

 Since these points E, F and G are col-linear points we have.

    EG = EF + FG

  And given that EG = 72

So, EF+EG = 72

     5w + 20 + 7w + 28 = 72

     12w + 48 = 72

      12 w = 24

       w = 2

So EF = 5w + 20 = 5x2 + 20 = 30

     FG = 7w + 28 = 7x2 + 28 = 42

They ate 13 hot dogs in 2 minutes, so divide 13 by 2 to find out how many hot dogs he ate in 1 minute:

13 / 2 = 6.5 hot dogs per minute.

Now divide total hot dogs eaten by 6.5 to get the total time:

91 / 6.5 = 14 total minutes.

rjkz [21]

Answer:

x (378) + y (378) =

Step-by-step explanation:

First i split 756.00 in half so basically what ever is multiplied by two to get 756 and i got 378. So since x = 3.00 and y = 2.00, it would come out to this:

3.00 x 378 = x (378) =

2.00 x 378 = y (378) =

So:

x (378) + y (378) =

im sorry if i got it wrong-
