If you start on page 20 and end on Page 50, you will have read 31 pages. I just counted from 20 to 50, including the number 20 in it.
OR: You already know there are 50-20=30 pages. But that's without counting the 20 in it. So when you add the extra 20: 30 + 1 = 31
Translated version:
Если вы начнете со страницы 20 и закончите со страницы 50, вы прочтете 31 страницу. Я только что насчитал от 20 до 50, включая число 20 в нем.
ИЛИ: Вы уже знаете, что 50-20 = 30 страниц. Но это без учета 20 в нем. Поэтому, когда вы добавляете дополнительные 20: 30 + 1 = 31
Я использовал Google Translate, поэтому результаты могут быть неточными.
To solve this you need to use the formula for Chord-Chord length. You need to know it, it is ab=cd. with this, we can plug numbers in.
a=30
b=x+1
c=2x-6
d=21
So our new equation is:
30(x+1)=21(2x-6)
30x+30=42x-126
156=12x
x=13
This isn't what the question is askign for though, it wants YZ
Which is A+B or 30+x+1 or 21+13=34.
YZ=34

Answer: The year 2020</h3>
Explanation:
x is the number of years since 1988
x = 0 represents the year 1988
x = 1 is the year 1988+1 = 1989
x = 2 is the year 1988+2 = 1990
etc
x = 32 is the year 1988+32 = 2020
