Answer:
x ≤ 6 and x ≥ 2
Step-by-step explanation:
For now, we will start with doing each problem at a time. Here is your equation:
2x - 4 ≤ 8
First, you want to get the variable by itself. So, you add 4 to both sides. It will look like this:
2x - 4 ≤ 8
+ 4 + 4
The four being added on the left side cancels out, and you add 4 to 8. Now, it should look like this:
2x ≤ 12
Next, you want the x by itself. So, you would divide both sides by 2.
2x ≤ 12
/2 /2
2 divided by 2 cancels out, and 12 divided by 2 equals 6. Now, you have a final answer of:
x ≤ 6
But, you now have to do the other one!
Here is what you start off with:
x + 5 ≥ 7
First, you want the variable side by itself. So, you subtract 5 from both sides.
x + 5 ≥ 7
- 5 -5
Now, you have this:
x ≥ 2
Because the variable is already by itself, you don't need to do any more division and this is you final answer. Now put both answers you got together which equals:
x ≤ 6 and x ≥ 2

If the 3 is an exponent, then the person above me is right.
Remark
You are using the midpoint formula. Instead of finding the midpoint, you are looking for one of the points, so you have to rearrange the formula a little bit.
Givens
Midpoint (4,2)
One endpoint (6,1)
Object
Find the other endpoint.
Formula
m(x,y) = (x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2)
Solution
Find the x value
4 = (6 + x2)/2 Multiply both sides by 2
4*2 = 6 + x2 Subtract 6 from both sides.
8 - 6 = x2
x2 = 2
Find the y value
2 = (1 + y2)/2 Multiply by 2
4 = 1 + y2 Subtract 1 from both sides.
4 - 1 = y2
y2 = 3
Conclusion
R(x,y) = (2,3)
