Stmt II

z=5x

x=1 z=5

x+10/2>z

If x=2 then x+10/2<z

INSUFF

Stmt I

Take x any value for z to be closer to 10 z has to be always greater than x+10/2

SUFF

There could be other approaches but this is mine!!!

0........x........[(10+x)/2]...........10

If Z sits in the middle it means that it is the average of 10 and X but since Z is closer to the 10 it means that Z is greater than the average of 10 and X - SUF

I don't see how statement 1 is sufficient.

If z is 9 and x is 8, then we have...

9>(8+10)/2?
9>9?

no....


Did I miss something?

Except that if z is 9 and x is 8, then z is NOT closer to 10 than it is to x!

We're only allowed to use numbers that fit the statements provided. Your values of x=8 and z=9 violate statement (1), so they're invalid.

By definition, the average of two numbers is right in the middle of the two numbers on the number line. So, if z is closer to the big number than the small number, z will definitely be greater than the average.
