Answer:

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that on a number line, point A has a coordinate of −6, and point B has a coordinate of 2. It means

x_1=-6

x_2=2

Midpoint formula:

x=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}

x=\frac{-6+2}{2}

x=\frac{-4}{2}

x=-2

The coordinate of point M is -2. Therefore option B is correct.

To solve this, we just need to find the distance between the points A and B in the number line, and then, divide that distance by 2.
Remember that the distance formula between tow point in the number line is: 
d=|x_{2}-x_{1}|
From our point we can infer that x_{1}=-6 and x_{2}=2, so lets replace the values:
d=|x_{2}-x_{1}|
d=|2-(-6)|
d=|2+6|
d=8

Now, to find the coordinate of the midpoint, we just need to divide that distance by 2:
M= \frac{8}{2}
M=4

We can conclude that the coordinate of the point M, the midpoint of AB, is 4

Answer:

16 and 125

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x + y)2 – (3x – 2y)2 + (x – 4y)(x + 4y<br>11​
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a+ b)² = a² +  b² + 2ab

(2x + y)² = (2x)² + y² + 2*2x *y

             = 4x²  + y² + 4xy

(a- b)² = a² + b² - 2ab

(3x - 2y)² = (3x)² + (2y)² - 2*3x *2y

              = 9x² + 4y² - 12xy

(a - b)(a +b) = a² - b²

(x - 4y(x + 4y) = x² - (4y)²

                     = x² - 16y²

(2x + y)² - (3x - 2y)² + (x - 4y)(x +4y)

  = 4x²  + y² + 4xy - (9x² + 4y² - 12xy) + x² - 16y²

  = 4x²  + y² + 4xy - 9x² - 4y² + 12xy + x² - 16y²

  = 4x² - 9x² + x²  + y² - 4y² - 16y²+ 4xy + 12xy

 =    -4x² - 19y² + 16xy
