Well if FG is 4x and GH is 2x the you add them to get 6x for FH. Solve for x so 6x=18 which means x=3. Hope this helps

we know that

[tex]FH=FG+GH[/tex]

In this problem we have

[tex]FH=18\ units\\FG=4x\\GH=2x[/tex]

substitute in the formula above

[tex]18=4x+2x[/tex]

solve for x

[tex]6x=18[/tex]

[tex]x=18/6[/tex]

[tex]x=3\ units[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

The value of x is [tex]3\ units[/tex]
