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>

Answer:
B: Yes, the participants are grouped by sun exposure, and then both treatments are randomly assigned within each group.
Step-by-step explanation:
Randomized block design is one in which the experimental units are categorized into groups which we call blocks. Thereafter, treatments will be randomly allocated to the experimental units inside each of the blocks.
Now, from the question, we can see that they were grouped in Blocks according to their outdoor activity which is degree of exposure to the sun. Thereafter the individual groups are randomly assigned treatments.
Thus, Option B is correct.
40 * 7.85 = 314
32.24 + 24.02 + 24.53 = 80.79
314 - 80.79 = 233.21
