Ok so assuming that the 'x' means multiply and not 'x' as in placeolder we do
PEMDAS
parenthaseees
exponents
multipilcation or division
additon or subtraction
parethasees simplify first
(8+7)=15
(9-3)=6
now we have
2x(15)-6/2x(6)
multiply
2x15=30
6/2x6=36/2=18
now we have
30-18
12
answer is 12
25 cuz 18/3=6 and 22+9=31. 31-6=25
The slope of the line is 2
The formula for finding slope using two coordinate pairs is y-y
——-
x-x
In this case, the y values are 10 and 2, and the x values are 6 and 2. If we plug these into our formula the equation is 10-2
———
6-2
10-2 is 8 and 6-2 is 4. So 8 divided by 4 would equal 2
If D is the midpoint of CE, then CD must be equal to DE
