Answer:
BZ = 64/23 = 2 18/23
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle bisectors divide the triangle into proportional parts, so we have ...
CB/CY = AB/AY
CB = CY(AB/AY) = 4(8/6) = 16/3 . . . . multiply by CY and evaluate
and ...
BZ/CB = AZ/AC
BZ = AZ(CB/AC) . . . . multiply by CB
But we have ...
AZ = 8 -BZ, so this becomes ...
BZ = (8 -BZ)(16/3)/(10)
BZ(1 +8/15) = 64/15 . . . . add the BZ term on the right to both sides
BZ = (64/15)(15/23) = 64/23 . . . . divide by the coefficient of BZ
BZ = 64/23 = 2 18/23
So first you need to add 4 to each side to get (x+5)^2=16. Next you need to take the square root of each side to get √(x+5)^2=+-√16. After that simplify to get x+5=+-4. Now subtract 5from both sides to look like x=-5+-4. Now just do x=-5+4 and x=-5-4 then solve to get x=-1 and x=-9.
The numerator in a fraction represents the number of pieces selected. If the numerator is larger than the denominator, the number is larger than one
