Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So to do this you would set up the equation $3x-6=84$ than you would add 6 to both sides so you would get $3x=90$ than you would divide 3 from both sides so $x=30$ and that is the final answer which is correct

Answer:

Option 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluating the options :

Option 1

2 |x - 5| - 4 < -8
2 |x - 5| < -4
|x - 5| < -2
Empty set as modulus cannot be less than 0

Option 2

|2x - 1| - 7 < -6
|2x - 1| < 1
x < 1
There is a solution set other than empty set

Option 2 is the right answer.

Points B and B' have symmetry with respect to P. Find the coordinates of P when B is (2, 8) and B' is (2, 2). A. (2, 5) B. (0, 5

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

A. (2, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

If B and B' have symmetry, then P is a midpoint between those points. We can determinate the location of point P by using the midpoint equation, whose vectorial form is:

$P(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot B(x,y)+\frac{1}{2}\cdot B'(x,y)$ (Eq. 1)
