Answer: B) 2</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
Take away the four white small squares on the left side. To balance things out, you have to add 4 black squares to the right side.
Also, take away the two white long rectangles from the right side. To balance this out, you have to add 2 gray long rectangles to the left side.
You should have:
- 5 gray rectangles, and no squares (of any color) on the left side
- 10 black squares, no long rectangles (of any color), on the right side
From here you'll group up the 10 black squares so that you'll have 2 black squares per gray rectangle.
This means the solution is 2.
-------------------------------------
If you're curious about the algebraic way to solve, then you could do this:
3x-4 = -2x+6
3x+2x = 6+4
5x = 10
x = 10/5
x = 2
This method doesn't require us to use the visual model.
If we have 2 coordinates say: (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)
Then the formula for the midpoint is:
((x1+x2)/2,(y1+y2)/2)
And the formula for the distance is:
Sqrt((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)
So here we have (-1,-4) and (-7,4)
The midpoint is:
((-1+-7)/2,(-4+4)/2) = (-8/2,0/2) = (-4,0)
The distance is:
Sqrt((-7- -1)^2+(4- -4)^2)
= sqrt((-6^2)+(8^2))
=sqrt(36+64)
=sqrt(100)
=10

Answer:
<u>The answer is 13/17</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+y^2 divided by 4x+5y
4(3)+1^2 divided by 4(3)+5(1)
12+1 divided by 12+5
13 divided by 17
<u>13/17</u>
