Answer:
A. Draw a line from the segment to any point on the fold line.
Step-by-step explanation:
When using the paper folding method to find the midpoint of a line segment we take the following steps:
- Draw a line segment on the tracing paper
- Fold the tracing paper so that the endpoints lie on top of each other
- Mark the intersection of the fold and the segment with a point
These steps include statements B, C, and D. Drawing a line from the segment to any point on the fold line, which is statement A, is not included in these steps because it is not needed.
Thus, choice A is not a step in using paper folding to find the midpoint of a line segment.
Answer:
4 - ( 3x - 8 ) = 21
break the bracket first ,it gives : 4 - 3x + 8 = 21
12 - 3x = 21
- 3x = 21 - 12
- 3x = 9
-x = 9/3
-x = 3
X = - 3
[ check if the answer is correct, put -3 instead of X in the above equation ! we get 4 - { 3(-3) - 8 } = 21
4 - { - 9 - 8 } = 21
4 - { - 17 } = 21
break the bracket, minus and minus will multiply and will become plus , so we have 4 + 17 = 21 , hence 21 = 21 ! therefore X = -3
Adding fractions is easy when you get the rules...
10/12 + 6/12...
add the numerator which is the top, and keep the denominator which is the bottom.
10/12 +6/12 = 16/12
change that into a mixed number
16/12 = 1 4/12 which is simplified to 1 1/3
