You can not "solve" this, so to speak, rather simplify this expression. Take the "2" and multiply that by the "a" and the "3" in the parentheses. You will then have the simplified answer of: 2a times 6.
Hope that helps!
Question 9
Given the segment XY with the endpoints X and Y
Given that the ray NM is the segment bisector XY
so
NM divides the segment XY into two equal parts
XM = MY
given
XM = 3x+1
MY = 8x-24
so substituting XM = 3x+1 and MY = 8x-24 in the equation
XM = MY
3x+1 = 8x-24
8x-3x = 1+24
5x = 25
divide both sides by 5
5x/5 = 25/5
x = 5
so the value of x = 5
As the length of the segment XY is:
Length of segment XY = XM + MY
= 3x+1 + 8x-24
= 11x - 23
substituting x = 5
= 11(5) - 23
= 55 - 23
= 32
Therefore,
The length of the segment = 32 units
Question 10)
Given the segment XY with the endpoints X and Y
Given that the line n is the segment bisector XY
so
The line divides the segment XY into two equal parts at M
XM = MY
given
XM = 5x+8
MY = 9x+12
so substituting XM = 5x+8 and MY = 9x+12 in the equation
XM = MY
5x+8 = 9x+12
9x-5x = 8-12
4x = -4
divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = -4/4
x = -1
so the value of x = -1
As the length of the segment XY is:
Length of segment XY = XM + MY
= 5x+8 + 9x+12
= 14x + 20
substituting x = 1
= 14(-1) + 20
= -14+20
= 6
Therefore,
The length of the segment XY = 6 units
You first divide both numbers by 4 to get one quarter which is the unit, and to get the rate, you divide 15 by 4 also. i got the unit rate is 3.75 points oer quarter.
Your answer would be y=5/3x+8
