Ratio is a comparison of two values or two quantities.

Fraction is a another form of ratio.

The first term and the second term in the ratios are important.

M is the midpoint of AB. AM = 9x-6, and BM = 6x+27 find x. find Am. Find BM.
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

x=11

Step-by-step explanation:

M is the midpoint this means that we can set AM and BM equal to eachother, once this is done we can solve for x

9x-6=6x+27 (set equal to eachother)

9x=6x+33 (add 6)

3x=33 (subtract 6x)

x=11 (divide by 3)
