Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If we assume that the segment marked (2x+1) is a midsegment, then it is half the length of the parallel base:
2(2x+1) = 8x-2
4x +2 = 8x -2 . . . . eliminate parentheses
4 = 4x . . . . . . . . . . add 2-4x to both sides
1 = x . . . . . . . divide by 4
__
The above assumption makes the two segments marked with z-expressions be the same length:
3z = z +22
2z = 22 . . . . . . subtract z
z = 11 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
The values of X and Z are 1 and 11, respectively.
