If Z is the midpoint of RT , what are X , RZ and RT.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x = 13, RZ = 48, and RT = 24 x = 11, RZ = 16, and RT = 32 x = 13, RZ = 24, and RT = 48 x = 15, RZ = 24, and RT = 48

The midpoint divides the segment into two equal parts. Write the equation that says the two parts are equal and solve it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Huh ? Lol

OpenStudy (mertsj):

What is the midpoint?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dont know how to do it. Can you tell me how to step by step.

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Do you know what it means when someone says that point A is the midpoint?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah but z is the midpoint right so where do i go from there

OpenStudy (mertsj):

What does it mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It divides the line in two ?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

It divides the line into two EQUAL parts.

OpenStudy (mertsj):

In your problem, Z is the midpoint as you said. How long is the half of the line that is left of the point Z?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Idk how long it is.

OpenStudy (mertsj):

The part to the left is 4x-28. The part to the right is 24. Those two parts are equal.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh so 24
