Ok, you can refer to the midpoint formula to find the endpoint. Here goes...
MP=(2,-7) and EP=(8,-5)
Let x represent the missing endpoint.
(8+x)/2=2 NOTE: =2 represents first number of MP and the representation of number 8 is self explanatory. You have two endpoints but need to identify the other endpoint so you divide by 2. Then, multiply by two on both sides.
2(8+x)/2 = 2*2
16+x/2=4 do the next step (simplify) on the left side of equation 16x/2=8
Now, subtract 4-8=-4 So, the x coordinated of the missing endpoint is -4.
You need to combine like terms and subtract 30. How you find the answer is you work the problem first 1. Distribute the 6 (18x+30)-4x=35 then 2. combine like terms 18x and -4x. (14x+30)=35 then 3. Subtract 30 from both sides (14x)=5
BE and CD are parallel, so the triangles ABE and ACD are similar. Then the following relation holds:
AE/AD = AB/AC
10/(10 + 8) = x/(x + 6)
Solve for x :
10 (x + 6) = x (10 + 8)
10x + 60 = 18x
8x = 60
x = 60/8 = 7/5
