Forgive me but they deleted my answer for it did not have any work to be shown providing you know how to do Algebra you get X= 12 as your outcome. <span />
Answer:
The distributive property of multiplication
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The <u>distributive property of multiplication</u> states that the product of a number by a sum, is equal to multiply each addend by the number (This is called distributing the number) and then, you can add the products
so
in this problem we have
----> the number -3 is distributed
therefore
We have the distributive property of multiplication
Step-by-step explanation:
MID POINT =[(X1 +X2)/2 , (Y1 +Y2)/2]
WE KNKW THAT A(2,–8) AND THE MID POINT IS (3,3)
SUBSTITUTING INTO THE EQUATION ABOVE
(3,3) = [(2+ X2)/2 ,(–8+ Y2)/2]
EQUATING THE X COORDINATES
=> 3 = (2+ X2)/2 (CROSS MULTIPLY)
=> 6 = 2 + X2
X(subscript 2)= 4
EQUATING THE Y COORDINATES
=> 3 =(–8 +Y2)/2 (CROSS MULTIPLY)
6 = –8 +Y2
=> Y(subscript 2)= 14
THEREFORE THE COORDINATES OF B ARE (4 ,14)
hope this helps :)
