Step-by-step explanation:

Let people behind you=x

People ahead of you will be x+2

Total number of people in the line(including you) = x+(x+2)+1 = 2x+3

Also, 2x+3=3x

So x=3

People ahead = x+2 = 5

People behind = x = 3

Geometry, please answer question ASAP
jasenka [17]

Answer:   B) 6

Explanation:

Segment BA is half as long as ZY, since BA is a midsegment.

This means ZY is twice as long as BA

ZY = 2*BA

2*BA = ZY

2*(x-1) = 10

2x-2 = 10

2x = 10+2

2x = 12

x = 12/2

x = 6

Note how this leads to BA = x-1 = 6-1 = 5, which is half as long as ZY = 10.
