Question

Can somebody pls show me how to solve this?

Answer 1

Answer:

C. 52.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The total from W(-20) to Z(120) is 140.

You can add up all of the numbers in the ratio, 2:3:3, to get 8

Divide 140 by 8 to get 17.5

Multiply 17.5 times the number in the ratio for each segment, so the new ratio would be 35 : 52.5 : 52.5

Since you are trying to find segment XY, which was the 2nd number in the ratio, you would get your answer as 52.5
