Answer:

YZ = 8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since RY is an angle bisector then the ratio of the sides of the triangle are equal to the corresponding ratio of the base, that is

$\frac{YX}{YZ}$ = $\frac{XR}{ZR}$ , substitute values

$\frac{11.9}{YZ}$ = $\frac{7}{5}$ ( cross- multiply )

7YZ = 59.5 ( divide both sides by 7 )

YZ = 8.5

Solve the equations

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

(1)The value of x is -9 .

Option (B) is correct .

(2)The value of x is 13 .

Option (A) is correct .

(3)The value of the x is 11 .

Option (D) is correct .

(4) The value of the x is -15 .

Option (A) is correct .

(5)The value of the x is -11 .

Option (C) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

First Part

As given

4x = -36

$x = \frac{-36}{4}$

x = -9

Therefore the value of x is -9 .

Option (B) is correct .

Second Part

As given

5x - 15 = 50

5x = 50 + 15gg

5x = 65

$x = \frac{65}{5}$

x = 13

Therefore the value of x is 13 .

Option (A) is correct .

As given

4(x+2)-17=35

4x + 8 - 17 = 35

4x = 35 + 17 - 8

4x = 44

$x = \frac{44}{4}$

x = 11

Therefore the value of the x is 11 .

Option (D) is correct .

Fourth Part

As given

6x+12=4x-18

6x-4x = -12-18

2x = -30

$x = \frac{-30}{2}$

x = -15

Therefore the value of the x is -15 .

Option (A) is correct .

Fifth Part

As given

$\frac{1}{2}(4x-10)+5=x-11$

Simplify the above

4x-10+5×2 = 2x-22

4x-10+10= 2x-22

4x-2x = -22

2x=-22

$x = \frac{-22}{2}$

x = -11

Therefore the value of the x is -11 .

Option (C) is correct .
