Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If S is between R and T, then RS+ST = RT

Given the following parameters

RS=2z+6,

ST=4z−3,

RT=5z+12

On substituting

2z+6+4z-3 = 5z+12

Collect like terms

2z+4z-5z = 12+3-6

6z-5z = 15-6

z = 9

Hence the value of z is 9

Select the graph of the solution. Click until the correct graph appears. 3x + 1 < 7 (line graph)

WARRIOR [948]

3x + 1 < 7...subtract 1 from both sides
3x < 7 - 1
3x < 6 ...divide both sides by 3
x < 6/3
x < 2

there will be an open circle on 2....because the problem has no equal sign...the line will be shaded to the left...because it is less then.
