To find PY, we need to solve for Y in the equation PY = PX + PZ.
Given that PX = 8x - 7 and PZ = 5x + 8, we can substitute these values in the equation:
PY = (8x - 7) + (5x + 8)
Combining like terms:
PY = 8x + 5x - 7 + 8
Simplifying:
PY = 13x + 1
Therefore, the answer is not among the given options. The correct answer should be 13.
If PX = 8x−7
and PZ is 5x+8
