Answer 1

Answer:

$FH=73$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a segment FH and G is the midpoint of FH.

FH=$14x-4$

$FG=5x+9$

We have to find the measure of FH.

When G is the midpoint of segment FH

Then , FG=GH

$FH=FG+GH$

Segment addition property

$14x-4=FG+FG$

Substitution property

$14x-4=2FG$

$14x-4=2(5x+9)$

$14x-4=10x+18$

$14x-10x=18+4$

$4x=22$

$x=\frac{22}{4}=5.5$

Substitute the values then we get

$FG=5(5.5)+9=36.5$

$FG=GH=36.5$

$FH=14(5.5)-4=73$
