Triple a number decreased by 14

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Since we know 14, but we don't know the other number, we use a variable. To do that, we look at the problem, then we figure out the unknown. The unknown is: A number. We know 14. Since "Triple" means 3, we can put the exponent 3 by X.

Therefore, the answer is $X^3-14$ .

If M is the midpoint of XY, find the coordinates of X if M(-3,-1) and Y(-8,6)

vova2212 [387]

$\bf \textit{middle point of 2 points }\\ \quad \\
\begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
% (a,b)
X&({{ a}}\quad ,&{{ b}})\quad 
% (c,d)
Y&({{ -8}}\quad ,&{{ 6}})
\end{array}\qquad
% coordinates of midpoint 
\left(\cfrac{{{ x_2}} + {{ x_1}}}{2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{{{ y_2}} + {{ y_1}}}{2} \right)$

$\bf \left( \cfrac{-8+a}{2}~,~\cfrac{6+b}{2} \right)=\stackrel{M}{(-3,-1)}\implies 
\begin{cases}
\cfrac{-8+a}{2}=-3\\\\
-8+a=-6\\
\boxed{a=2}\\
----------\\
\cfrac{6+b}{2}=-1\\\\
6+b=-2\\
\boxed{b=-8}
\end{cases}$
