Answer:

x = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Alex's house (point F) lies on the same street as her school (point H). Alex's bus stop (point G) lies between her house and her school. Given FG=2x meters, GH=1,000 meters and FH=1,200 meters. What is the value of x in meters?

FG=2x meters, GH=1,000 meters and FH=1,200 meters.

FH = FG + GH

1200 = 2x + 1000

1200 - 1000 = 2x

200.= 2x

x.= 200/2

x = 100
