If the point P(x, y) partitions the segment AB in the ratio 1 : 1, then the point P is midpoint of segment AB.

The formula of a midpoint of segment:

$A(x_A;\ y_A),\ B(x_B,\ y_B)\\\\P_{AB}\left(\dfrac{x_A+x_B}{2};\ \dfrac{y_A+y_B}{2}\right)$

We have:

$A(13,\ 1)\to x_A=13,\ y_A=1\\B(-5,\ -3)\to x_B=-5,\ y_B-3\\\\P\left(\dfrac{13+(-5)}{2};\ \dfrac{1+(-3)}{2}\right)\to P\left(\dfrac{8}{2};\ \dfrac{-2}{2}\right)\to P(4,\ -1)$

Answer: C. (4, -1)

2(x - 2) = -4x + 44 what does x equal

Komok [63]

2(x - 2) = -4x + 44

First, expand. / Your problem should look like: $2x - 4 = -4x + 44$
Second, add 4 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: $2x = -4x + 44 + 4$
Third, simplify -4x + 44 + 4 to get -4x + 48. / Your problem should look like: $2x = -4x + 48$
Fourth, add 4x to both sides. / Your problem should look like: $2x + 4x = 48$
Fifth, add 2x + 4x to get 6x. / Your problem should look like: $6x = 48$
Sixth, divide both sides by 6. / Your problem should look like: $x = \frac{48}{6}$
Seventh, simplify $\frac{48}{6}$ to 8. / Your problem should look like: $x = 8$

Answer: x = 8

Ad libitum [116K]

The width is 18.

1. 2 lengths are 20 which is 20+20 that's 40.
2. 76-40= 36
3. Two widths are 36 cm.
4. so do 36÷2 and that equals 18
