A is the midpoint of XY. use the diagram belowe to find x, XA, AY, and XY.
A to Y is 12x - 15
X to A is 9x
X=?
XA =?
AY =?
XY =?


Answer :

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • XA = 45
  • AY = 45
  • XY = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Since A is the midpoint of XY, we have XA = AY:

  9x = 12x -15

  15 = 3x

  5 = x

  XA = 9x = 45

  AY = 12x -15 = 60 -15 = 45

  XY = 45 +45 = 90
