To isolate p in this equation you have to add 20 to both sides, since addition is the inverse operation of subtraction and vise versa. Adding 20 to both sides will cancel it out of the left side since -20 + 20 = 0.

Hope this helped!

Two angles of a triangle measure 22 and 53. What is the measure of the third angle?

telo118 [61]

All angles add to 180 (interior angles)

22+53+?=180
75+?=180
minus 75 both sides
?=105

third angle is 105 degrees

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment given it’s endpoint M(-5, 9) and N(-2, 7)

inessss [21]

Answer:

-7/2 , 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, M(-5,9) be x1 , y1

N(-2,7) be x2, y2

Now,

Using mid point formula

x = x1+x2/2 y = y1+y2/2

= -5-2/2 = 9+7/2

= -7/2 = 16/2

= 8
