Answer: 64

Step-by-step explanation:

If EFGH is a parallelogram, its diagonals bisect each other meaning EJ and JG are congruent.

EJ = JG

4w + 4 = 2w + 18

Subtract 2w from both sides

2w + 4 = 18

Subtract 4 from both sides

2w = 14

Divide both sides by 2

w = 7

EG = EJ + JG

EG = 4w + 4 + 2w + 18

EG = 6w + 22

Now that we know what 'w' is, we can substitute it for 7

EG = 6 (7) + 22

EG = 42 + 22 = 64

The measure of EG is 64.

Hope that helped!

Of the 1200 people who attended the Friday night football game, 57% were high schoolers. How many students attended the game?

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

684

Step-by-step explanation:

Using proportions (equivalent ratios), we can find the number of students that make up the 57% out of the total number of people:

$\frac{57}{100}=\frac{x}{1200}$

Cross-multiply: 100x = (57)(1200) or 100x = 68,400

Divide: 100x/100 = 68,400/100

Solve for x: x = 684 students
