Which value for x makes the following number sentence true? 12x = 6x + 24

Mathematics
1 answer:
denis23 [38]3 years ago
5 0
To solve this, first subtract 6x from both sides.

That is because there cannot be the same variable on both sides of the equation. The new equation would be:

6x=24

Now divide by both sides of the equation by 6

x=4

line AB has endpoints A (-3, 1) and B (4, 5), find the coordinates of point p on directed line segment AB that partitions AB in
Margarita [4]
<h3>Given</h3>

A(-3, 1), B(4, 5)

<h3>Find</h3>

coordinates of P on AB such that AP/PB = 5/2

<h3>Solution</h3>

AP/PB = 5/2 . . . . . desired result

2AP = 5PB . . . . . . multiply by 2PB

2(P-A) = 5(B-P) . . . meaning of the above

2P -2A = 5B -5P . . eliminate parentheses

7P = 2A +5B . . . . . collect P terms

P = (2A +5B)/7 . . . .divide by the coefficient of P

P = (2(-3, 1) +5(4, 5))/7 . . . . substitute the given points

P = (-6+20, 2+25)/7 . . . . . . simplify

P = (2, 3 6/7)
