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

What type of error is present in the underlined
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Type of error: <u>Run-on(comma splice).</u>

Best revision to fix it: <u>Adding a semicolon after beginners </u>.

Explanation:

A run-on sentence is described as a sentence in which two independent clauses are joined inappropriately. It could be either comma splice where the two independent clauses are incorrectly linked using a comma or fused sentence when the two clauses run-on without employing appropriate coordinating conjunction or punctuation marks to separate the two ideas.

In the given sentence, it exemplifies a comma splice type of run-on sentence error. To fix this error, a semicolon after 'beginners' can be employed instead of a comma. This <u>will help in connecting the two ideas appropriately where the first idea leads the second</u>. Thus, the final sentence reads as:

'The guitar is another excellent instrument for beginners; however, it takes more practice than a recorder.'
