Given that GI = 53, and
• GH = 3x - 11
• HI = 2x + 4

We can establish the following equality statement to solve for x:

GH + HI = GI
3x - 11 + 2x + 4 = 53

Combine like terms:
5x - 7 = 53

Add 7 to both sides:
5x - 7 + 7 = 53 + 7
5x = 60

Divide both sides by 5 to solve for x:
5x/5 = 60/5

x = 12

Substitute the value of x into the equality statement to verify if it is the correct value for x:

GH + HI = GI
3x - 11 + 2x + 4 = 53

3(12) - 11 + 2(12) + 4 = 53
36 - 11 + 24 + 4 = 53
53 = 53 (True statement. Thus, x = 12 is the correct value).

Therefore:
GH = 3x - 11
GH = 3(12) - 11
GH = 25

HI = 2x + 4
HI = 2(12) + 4
HI = 28

What is four fifths plus eight ninths
Jobisdone [24]
4/5 + 8/9. First we have to find a common denominator for \frac{4}{5} and \frac{8}{9}. \\  \frac{4*9}{5*9}= \frac{36}{45} \ and \  \frac{8*5}{9*5}= \frac{40}{45} \\ Now we are going to add:\frac{36}{45}+ \frac{40}{45}= \frac{76}{45} Make \frac{76}{45} a mixed number:\frac{76}{45}=1 \frac{31}{45} So the answer is \boxed{1 \frac{31}{45}}
