set it equal to 0

(-3+5)-(6x-8)=0

2-6x+8=0

isolate x

-6x=-2-8

-6x=-10

cancel negatives

6x=10

divide by 6

x= 10/6

reduce:

x = 5/3

Answer:

10 -6x

Step-by-step explanation:

We cannot solve since there is no equal sign, we can only simplify

(-3 + 5) - (6x - 8)

Combine the like terms in parentheses

(2) - (6x - 8)

Distribute the minus sign

2 -6x --8

2 -6x +8

Combine like terms

2+8 -6x

10 -6x

Find the coordinates of the other endpoint of the​ segment, given its midpoint and one endpoint.​ (Hint: Let​ (x,y) be the unkno
spin [16.1K]
The other endpoint is (1, -17).

The midpoint formula is:

m=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

Using our midpoint and endpoint, we have:
(6, -11) = (\frac{11+x_2}{2}, \frac{-5+y_2}{2})
\\
\\6=\frac{11+x_2}{2} \text{ and } -11=\frac{-5+y_2}{2}


For the first equation (to find the x-coordinate) we will multiply both sides by 2:
6\times2=\frac{11+x_2}{2}\times 2
\\
\\12=11+x_2

Subtract 11 from both sides:
12 - 11 = 11+x₂ - 11
1 = x₂

For the second equation (the y-coordinate) we multiply both sides by 2:
-11\times2=\frac{-5+y_2}{2}\times 2
\\
\\-22=-5+y_2

Add 5 to both sides:
-22+5 = -5+y₂ + 5
-17 = y₂

This means that (x₂, y₂) is at (1, -17).

Square root of 11 because:
sqrt2^2 = 2
3^2 = 9 
so C^2 or the hypotenuse would be the square root of 11
