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
