Multiplying positive numbers always comes out positive, no matter how many there are. So you can forget about the positive ones.
Every two negative numbers in a multiplication produce a positive.
Another way to say that is: If the number of negative ones is EVEN,
the answer is positive, and if it's ODD, the answer is negative.
That monster product of eight numbers in problem #12 will be negative,
because there are an odd amount of negative factors in it.
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
AB is given as 3(3x-1) multiply inside the parenthesis with 3
AB = 9x - 3
AC is given as 5(2x+2) multiply inside the parenthesis with 5
AC = 10x + 10
if B is midpoint of AC then AB = BC and AC = AB + BC if we write this equation using the given values
9x - 3 + 9x - 3 = 10x + 10 add like terms
18x - 6 = 10x + 10 transfer like terms to the same side of the equation
18x - 10x = 10 + 6
8x = 16 divide both sides by 8
x = 2 replace x with 2 in given expressions to find the value of each component
