2 x
----- = ------
3 15
cross multiply
(3)(x) = (15)(2)
3x = 30
x = 30/3
x = 10
so 2/3 = 10/15.......notice how these are equivalent fractions....that is because proportions are nothing but equivalent fractions
Answer:
Distance is 8.485
Midpoint is (3,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the points (-1,7) and (5,1)
Insert them into the equation and solve for D
Insert points into second equation to find midpoint
Answer:
it is the same on the other side
Step-by-step explanation:
1 step out the g where the other g is on the line it is on but other side
2 put x on same line with y but other side

Answer: C) 0</h3>
================================================
Explanation:
If points F and E are the midpoints of segment VU and segment ST respectively, then segment FE is the midsegment of the trapezoid. The midsegment is parallel to the bases, and the midsegment's length is found by adding up the bases VS and UT, then dividing by 2.
(VS + UT)/2 = FE
(29 + x+17)/2 = 23 ... plug in given info; isolate x
(x+46)/2 = 23
x+46 = 23*2 ... multiply both sides by 2
x+46 = 46
x = 46-46 ... subtract 46 from both sides
<h3>
x = 0</h3>
