Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

M(-6, -1) being the midpoint of AB means that $x_M-x_A=x_B-x_M$

$-6-(-5)=x_B-(-6)\\\\-6+5-6=x_B\\\\x_B=-7$

and $y_M-y_A=y_B-y_M$

$-1-3=y_B-(-1)\\\\-4=y_B+1\\\\y_B=-5$

-15 + 12x = 5x + 7 -3x SOLVE FOR X

Natali [406]

Answer: $x=\frac{11}{5}$

Simplify both sides of the equation

$-15+12x=5x+7+-3x$

$12x-15=(5x+-3x)+(7)$ (Combine Like Terms)

$12x-15=2x+7$

Subtract 2x from both sides

$12x-15-2x=2x+7-2x\\10x-15=7$

Divide both sides by 10

$\frac{10x}{10} =\frac{22}{10}$

$x=\frac{11}{5}$

3(x - 2) + 48 = -3x

kow [346]

Answer: X=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Using PEMDAS;

Step 1: Distribute the "3" in the part of the equation "3(x-2)"

3x - 6

Step 2: Consider the equation as a whole with the newly part of the equation from step 1, as it is a part of the equation

Therefore, re-written as,

3x - 6 + 48 = -3x

Step 3: Evaluate the re-written equation

Using basic mathematics skills, we can evaluate the following,

3x - 6 + 48 = -3x ➡ -6 + 48 = -6x ➡ 42 = -6x ➡ -7 = x

As shown, the answer is x=-7.
