Question

PLEASE HELP!!! ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST THIS IS WORTH 10 POINTS PLEASE (ignore where it says 8&2 points it’s how much the question adds up to in the grade book)

Answer 1

Answer:

Since the points X , Y and Z are collinear:

For the diagram, you just have to draw a line and mark the end-points of the line as X and Z and mark the mid-point of the line as Y

Since we are given that XY = YZ,

We will replace with the provided values:

XY = YZ

4(x + 5) = 2(x + 11)

4x + 20 = 2x + 22

2x = 2

x = 1

Since x = 1 and XY = YZ,

We can say that:

XZ = XY + YZ

XZ = XY + XY   or       XZ = 2XY

Now, replacing the variables for the value of XZ

XZ = 2XY

XZ = 2(4x + 20)

XZ = 2(4 + 20)              (Since x = 1)

XZ = 48 units
