Step-by-step explanation:
8-3 = 5,
3-5 = -2 = the x coordinate of B
-2-4 =-6,
-2-6 =-8 = the y coordinate of B
(-2,-8) is the point B
A is 5 to the right of the midpoint, so B is 5 to the left of the midpoint
A is 6 up from the midpoint so B is 6 down from the midpoint
<span>let x be the interval, then:
186 = 50 + 3 + (3+x) + (3+2x) + (3+3x) + (3+4x) + (3+5x) + (3+6x) + (3+7x)
186 = 74 + 28x
x = 4
Eldest son age = 3+7x = 3+28 = 31.</span>
