Respuesta :

XY is 1/2 TY. 1/2 of 10 is 5. 5=4x-6. x=4

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given triangle STU, Y is the centroid of the triangle.

Since centroid is the point of a triangle which divides all the medians of the triangle in 2 : 1 ratio.

therefore, y divide Tx om 2 : 1 ratio.

[tex]\frac{Ty}{xy}=\frac{2}{1}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{10}{2x-3}=\frac{2}{1}[/tex]

By cross multiplication

10 = 2 (2x-3)

10 = 4x - 6 ⇒ 4x = 10 + 6 = 16

x = [tex]\frac{16}{4}[/tex] = 4

Therefore, x = 4 is the answer.
