OpenStudy (anonymous):
do you understand it though?
hartnn (hartnn):
yeah,
since I is mid-point of GE, IG=IE
so, x+1 = 3x-2
can u find x from here ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
my answer is either A B or C. x=3 over 2

hartnn (hartnn):
corrrect!
x= 3/2
so,GE = IG+IE = x+1+3x-2 = ... ?

i keep getting x=5/8
OpenStudy (anonymous):
4x-1=3/2 solve for x. x=5/8
hartnn (hartnn):
see,
4x-1 = 4 (3/2) -1
now 4/2 =2
so,
2*3-1
oh you solved for that, i actually told to put x=3/2 in 4x-1 :P
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then i tried 4x-1+3/2 but no luck either
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ohhhhh
