Step-by-step explanation:

Xj + Xk/2 = Xm

7 + Xk/2 = 1

to get rid of the bracket, multiply all two sides by the denominator.

2(7 + Xk/2) = 1(2)

7 + Xk = 2

Xk = 2 - 7

Xk = -5

Yj + Yk/2 = Ym

2 + Yk/2 = -2

to get rid of the bracket, multiply all two sides by the denominator.

2(2 + Yk/2) = -2(2)

2 + Yk = -4

Yk = -4 - 2

Yk = -6

Therefore the coordinates of point K is (-5,-6)

Counterclockwise there are four 60 degree sections, therefore one would have to rotate the hexagon 240 degrees counterclockwise to map B to F.
Final Answer:
240 degrees.

(3n-2)(4n+1) how do i solve this by factoring?

Anni [7]

Answer:

$12n^2-5n-2$

The expression (3n-2)(4n+1) can be factored with the Distributive Property. It cannot be factored with a Least Common Multiple (LCM), for instance, because the terms within each set of parentheses are completely simplified.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part I

. $1. (3n-2)(4n+1)\\2. F.O.I.L.: 12n^2+3n-8n-2\\3. Simplify: 12n^2-5n-2\\$
