<h3>Point Y is the midpoint of segment XZ. Then value of x is 20</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

<em><u>Point Y is the midpoint of segment XZ</u></em>

XY = 2(3x +1)

YZ = 5x + 22

To find: Value of x

Since, Point Y is the midpoint of segment XZ,

Therefore,

XY = YZ

2(3x + 1) = 5x + 22

6x + 2 = 5x + 22

6x - 5x = 22 - 2

Thus, value of x is 20

Paul baked 56 blueberry muffins. His brother Pete ate 7 muffins and his father William ate 5 muffins. Which expression can Paul

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer: 56-(7+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

(7+5 is in parentheses because if not, you would have 56-7+5 and get 54).
