Question

Given segment XZ and point Y that lies on XZ find XZ if XY = 7 and YZ = 17

Answer 1

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given segment XZ and point Y. First, draw a number line. Draw X and Z on either side of the number line. We know that Y is between X and Z since there are the distances of XY and YZ. To find XZ, add the distance of XY and YZ, which are respectively 7 and 17. Adding 7 and 17, we get 24 as the answer.

Answer 2

It’s 24 because you add 7 and 17 which is 24
