Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know what a tape diagram is but I can give you the equation and the answer.

Let Victor have x points

Let Maria have y points

y = x + 424

y/x = 5/3                     Cross multiply

3y = 5x                       Divide by 3

y = 5x/3                      I Could have just multiplied by x

y = x + 424

5x/3 = x + 424           Multiply both sides by 3

5x = 3x + 1272           Subtract 3x from both sides.

5x-3x = 1272              Combine the left.

2x = 1272                    Divide by 2

2x/2 = 1272/2

x = 636

Victor Scored 636 points

Maria Scored 636 + 424 = 1060

Answer:

According to Angle Bisector Theorem, if Ray YZ is an angle bisector, then MZ and NZ are congruent.

EH= 23. It is shown that ray FH bisects EFG, EF and EH are perpendicular, FG and HG are perpendicular. Then EH and GH are congruent. Therefore since GH= 23, then EH= 23

When adding numbers with opposite signs, you subtract their absolute values, and keep the sign of the number having the larger absolute value.
