Step-by-step explanation:

EF = 4x - 15

FG = 3x - 7

EG = EF + FG = 20

so,

4x - 15 + 3x - 7 = 20

7x - 22 = 20

7x = 42

x = 6

EF = 4×6 - 15 = 9

FG = 3×6 - 7 = 11

3x-2y=2<br> i always get mixed up in the final answer y=1 -3/2x 0r y= 1 +-3/2x ?
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Both answers are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

both y = 1 - 3/2x and y = 1 + -3/2x are correct answers, it is just that y= 1 - 3/2x is the simpler version. Adding a negative number is the same as subtracting a positive.

2. y=2x+3 

When x =0 and y= something, the 'something' is your y-intercept which is b in the y=mx+b formula.  Then we look at what is changed in the x and y value to determine the m part.  the x increase by 1 and y increase by 2 so the m part is 2. 

3. y=-7x 
Same as the last one, there is no y-inter this time because the y=0 when x=0/  So the y deceased by 7 each time and x incease by 1 so it is -7 for the m part.

In the accompanying diagram of parallelogram ABCD,diagonals AC and DB intersect at E, AE = 3x - 4, andEC = x + 12.What is the va
skelet666 [1.2K]

x = 8

Explanation:

AE = 3x - 4

EC = x + 12

SInce diagonals AC and DB intersect at E

it means the lines which meet at the intersection E are equal. A and C meet at E which gives AE and EC

AE = EC

3x - 4 = x + 12

collect like terms:

3x - x = 12 + 4

2x = 16

divide both sides by 2:

2x/2 = 16/2

x = 8
