Answer:
(A) y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that [tex]RS=8y+4[/tex], [tex]ST=4y+8[/tex]and [tex]RT = 36,[/tex] then
According to the figure given, we have
[tex]RT=RS+ST[/tex]
[tex]36=8y+4+4y+8[/tex]
[tex]36=12y+12[/tex]
[tex]24=12y[/tex]
[tex]y=\frac{24}{12}[/tex]
[tex]y=2[/tex]
Thus, the value of y will be 2.
Hence, option A is correct.
