Answer:
550 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Peter's account is 910-40x, and Marla's account is 470-2x. This is a system, so you must find the number that makes both equations end up with the same number. Basically trial and error. Here is what I did:
Let's try the number 10. 910-400=510 and 470-20=450. I need a higher number.
Let's try 13 next. 910-520=390 and 470-26=444. Now the number has to be lower.
Let's try 12. 910-480=430 and 470-24=446. Close, and a little lower.
11.5 is too low, and 11.7 is too high. 11.6 has Equation 1 at 446 and Equation 2 at 446.8. Very close!
It is somewhere around 11.6. I hope that this can give you a start in figuring it out, because I don't believe in giving the complete answer, because then you do not learn anything from it.
Easy peasy
the midpoint between
and
is
just average them
so given that (3,5) is the midpoint of (-4,5) and (x,y)
so by logic
and
times both sides by 2 for everybody
-4+x=6 and 5+y=10
add 4 to both sides for left one and minus 5 from both sides for right
x=10 and y=5
the coordinate of point C is (10,5)
the x coordinate is 10
