Answer:

EG = 19

Explanation:

Given that a line segment CD. EF bisects the line CD at point G.

Length of CG = 5x-1

Length of GD = 7x - 13

We know that CG = GD

5x-1 = 7x-13

Solve for x,

2x = 12

x = 6

Now given that,

EF = 6x-4

GF = 13

EF = EG + GF

6x - 4 = EG + 13

EG = 6x - 4 - 13

EG = 6x - 17

put the value of x = 6, in order to find the EG

EG = 6*6 - 17

EG = 19

That's the final answer.

I hope it will help you.

5x-1=7x-13 —> subtract 7x from both sides and add 1 to both sides —> -2x-12 —> divide both sides by -2 —> x=6

In a box, 1/4 of the beads are red, 3/5 of the remainder are yellow, and the rest are blue. If there are 48 blue beads, how many
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

160 total beads

Step-by-step explanation:

so if 1/4 of the beads are red, then 3/4 of them are not.....so 3/4 is the remainder of beads.....and 3/5 of the remainder are yellow....so 3/5 of 3/4 =

3/5 * 3/4 = 9/20...so 9/20 are yellow.....and the rest (48) are blue.

1/4 + 9/20 = 5/20 + 9/20 = 14/20 reduces to 7/10...so 7/10 of the beads are red and yellow

so if 7/10 of the beads are red and yellow, then 3/10 are blue

3/10 of what number is 48

3/10x = 48

x = 48 * 10/3

x = 480/3

x = 160

let me check it..

1/4 are red......160 total beads.....so red beads = (1/4 * 160) = 160/4 = 40

3/5 of the remainder is yellow.....so 3/5 of (160 - 40) = 3/5(120) = 72 yellow

and then u have 48 blue...

40 + 72 + 48 = 160

so there are 160 total beads.......40 red, 72 yellow, and 48 blue <===

Geomtry plz help me 15 pointz
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

m∠R=76°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠STR=∠RST=(2x+2)° (base angles of isos triangle)

2(2x+2)+(3x+1)=180 (angle sum of triangle)

      4x+4+3x+1=180

               7x+5=180

                    7x=180-5

                        =175

                      x=175÷7

                        =25

Hence, m∠R = (3x+1)°

                     = [3(25)+1]°

                     = (75+1)°

                     = 76°

Question 11 (2.5 points)
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is d, because a represents adults, and c represent children. It's $45 per adult, so $45a, and $30 per child, so $30c. a+c is equal to 10, because that's how many tickets were purchased. $45a+$30c=345, because $345 is the total amount spent on tickets.
