Your coach can select it 4 times I think
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
EG = 59
EF = 8x - 14
FG = 4x + 1
to find the value of x
EF + FG = EG (same line)
8x - 14 + 4x + 1 = 59
12x -13 = 59
12x = 59 + 13
12x = 72
x = 72 ÷ 12
x = 6
You can even cross check for correct answer
EF + FG = EG
instead of x place the x's value we got
8x - 14 + 4x + 1 = 59
8 (6) - 14 + 4 (6) + 1 = 59
48 - 14 + 24 + 1 = 59
34 + 25 = 59
59 = 59
CROSS - CHECKED
