Part 1) Finding x
Note the double tickmarks for segments XY and YZ. This indicates the segments are the same length, which leads to point Y being the midpoint of segment XZ.
Therefore, XZ is twice as long as XY
XZ = 2*( XY )
XZ = 2*( 2x-1 )
XZ = 4x - 2
We also know that XZ = 2(3x-4) = 6x-8. Let's equate 4x-2 and 6x-8 and solve for x
6x-8 = 4x-2
6x-4x = -2+8
2x = 6
x = 6/3
x = 3
<h3>Answer is 3</h3>
=====================================
Part 2) Finding the length of YZ
The resut of part 1 (x = 3) is plugged into the equation for XY to get
XY = 2*x-1
XY = 2*3-1
XY = 6-1
XY = 5
Segment XY is 5 units long. So is segment YZ as these two segments are the same length (aka congruent).
<h3>Answer: 5</h3>
=====================================
Part 3) Finding the length of segment XZ
The answer from the previous part was 5. This doules to 5*2 = 10
-----
A longer way to get the same answer is to plug x = 3 into the XZ equation and we get...
XZ = 2*(3x-4)
XZ = 2*(3*3-4)
XZ = 2*(9-4)
XZ = 2*5
XZ = 10
and we get the same answer
<h3>Answer: 10</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:
$49.95 + (10 * 0.05)
Answer:
<h2>L=203 yards</h2><h2>W=52 yards</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
perimeter= 510 yards
let the width be x, width=x
length= (4x-5)-----quadruple mean 4 times
Step two:
the expression for perimeter is
P=2L+2W
510=2(4x-5)+2x
510=8x-10+2x
510+10=8x+2x
520=10x
divide both sides by 10
x=520/10
x=52
the width is 52 yards
the lenght is (4x-5)
L=4(52)-5
L=208-5
L=203 yards
Answer:
B. 
Step-by-step explanation:
The given quadratic trinomial is;
Comparing this to 
, we have a=5,b=17,c=6.
Two factors of 30 that add up to 17 is 15 and 2.
We split the middle term to obtain;
We factor by grouping;
Factor further
The correct answer is B.
