Ok, so after you do -8a+5a, you also have to do 6 -35, getting the equation
-29-3a
OK, so for this equation, your goal is to get the d, and ONLY the d, on one side of the equation. So, to start out, you need to multiply the entire equation, meaning both sides, by 8 because we are trying to get rid of those pesky fractions.
8(1/8(3d-2)=1/4(d+5))
The equation then turns into this because the 8 and 4 cancelled out with the 8.
1(3d-2)=2(d+5)
Now, we need to distribute the left over numbers into the parenthesis.
3d-2=2d+10
And finally, we need to get the d's on one side, and the numbers on the other, so we subtract 2d from both sides and add the 2 to both sides. They then cancel out to make
d=12
Hope it helps! :)
Answer: C= (3,2) and D=(2.2, 2.8)
Step-by-step explanation:
The coordinates of point P(x,y) divides a line segment having end points M
and N
in m:n will be :-
Given : The endpoints of AB are A(1,4) and B(6,-1).
If point C divides AB in the ratio 2 : 3, the coordinates of point C will be :-
Simplify,
Thus , coordinate of C= (3,2)
If point D divides AC in the ratio 3 : 2, the coordinates of point D will be :-
Simplify,
Thus , coordinate of D= (2.2,2.8)
