Answer:
The coordinates of B are (-2 , 9)
Step-by-step explanation:
A (8, 4)
M (3 , -1)
To calculate a midpoint you have to add the corresponding coordinates of each point and divide them by 2
(Ax + Bx) / 2 = Mx
(8 + Bx) / 2 = 3
8 + Bx = 3 * 2
Bx = 6 - 8
Bx = -2
(Ay + By) / 2 = My
( -1 + By) / 2 = 4
-1 + By = 4 * 2
By = 8 + 1
By = 9
The coordinates of B are (-2 , 9)
The answers would be 11, if you plug it in it would be 5(11)-7=48
Answer:
x = -10; x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
|2x + 3| - 6 =11
Add 6 to each side.
|2x + 3| = 17
Apply the absolute rule: If |x| = a, then x = a or x = -a.
(1) 2x + 3 = 17 (2) 2x + 3 = -17
Subtract 3 from each side
2x = 14 2x = -20
Divide each side by 2
x = 7 x = -10
<em>Check:
</em>
(1) |2(7) + 3| - 6 = 11 (2) |2(-10) + 3| - 6 = 11
|14 + 3| - 6 = 11 |-20 + 3| - 6 = 11
|17| - 6 = 11 |-17| - 6 = 1
1
17 - 6 = 11 17 - 6 = 11
11 = 11 11 = 11
