#27.
First cross multiply
2 (2a-3) = 3 (a-1)
next use the distribute property on both sides
4a - 6 = 3a - 3
combine like terms, subtract 3a from both sides and add 6 to both sides
a = 3
#28
cross multiply
3x = 4, then divide both sides by 3
x = 4/3
#30
add 1/4 to both sides
3/x = 1/2 + 1/4, find a common denominator for the right side fractions
3/x = 2/4 + 1/4 = 3/4
therefore, x = 4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2, because 2 can only be divided by 1 and itself, and thats what a prime number is
C(-8,2) and M(0,0) , since M is at the origin. Let x₁ and y₁ be the
coordinates of S →s(x₁ , y₁)
C(-8,2) and S(x₁ , y₁)
The coordinates of M, the midpoint of CS are M(x₂ , y₂)
a) x₂ = (-8 + x₁)/2 , but x₂ = 0, then :
0 = -4+x₁/2 and x₁ = 8
b) y₂ = (2+y₁)/2 , but y₂ = o, then:
0 = 2+ y₁/2 and y₂ = -2
Then the coordinates of S are S(8 , -2)
