Answer: 12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Points A, B, C, and D lie on a line consecutively so that AB = BC = CD = 6 in

Therefore, A, B, C and D lie on a line which has a distance of 6 inches between each consecutive point.

A could be taken as the starting point with and D taken the end of the line with B and C in between them.

For instance:

A = 6; B = 12 ; C = 18 ; D = 24

Midpoint of AB = (12 + 6) / 2 = 18/2 = 9

Midpoint of CD = (18 + 24) / 2 = 42/2 = 21

Distance between the Midpoint AB and CD equals:

Midpoint CD - Midpoint AB

(21 - 9) inches = 12 inches

Oksana_A [137]
If I understand your question well, I suppose you mean \frac{4}{ x^{2} -35} -  \frac{1}{x+5}
\frac{4}{ x^{2} -35} - \frac{1}{x+5} =  \frac{4}{(x+5)(x-7)}- \frac{1}{x+5} \\ = \frac{1}{x+5}( \frac{4}{x-7}-1) \\ = \frac{1}{x+5}( \frac{4}{x-7}- \frac{x-7}{x-7}) \\ = \frac{1}{x+5}( \frac{4-x+7}{x-7}) \\ = \frac{1}{x+5}( \frac{11-x}{x-7}) \\ = \frac{11-x}{ x^{2} -35}
