Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2=10 subtract 2 from each side

2x=8 divide each side by 2

x=4 is the correct solution.

Her error was most likely subtracting 2 from the left and adding 2 to the right

2x+2=10

2x=12

x=6

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment with endpoints A(-5, 6) and B(3, 2). You must show all work in order to rece
OLga [1]
Midpoint Formula = M = ( \frac{ x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}) + ( \frac{ y_{1} + y_{2}} {2})

We are given the coordinates: A(-5,6) and B(3,2)
Plug the values into the equation to get:
M = ((3 - 5)/2, (2 + 6)/2)
Now, just solve it down to get M = (-1,4).

The midpoint of the segment with endpoints A(-5,6) and B (3,2) is (-1,4). Hope this helps ALot and have a wonderful day!

Is Part A correct? And can someone please help me with part B? (Highlighted)
Masja [62]
Part A. Your model is as good as any. It is hard to tell if the label needs to include the descriptor (length = 12 ft, for example). Certainly your model is sufficient for Part B.

Part B. The total area is the sum of the areas of each of the 6 faces of the box. Opposite faces are the same area, so you have
  A = 2(LW +WD +LD) = 2(LW +D(L +W))
Subsituting the given dimensions, you get
  A = 2((12 ft)(6 ft) +(3 ft)(12 ft +6 ft))
  A = 2(72 ft² +(3 ft)(18 ft))
  A = 2(72 ft² +54 ft²) = 252 ft²

The least amount of paper required to cover the box is 252 ft².

Find the sum and express it in the simplest form.(2y^2+9y+4)+(-3y^2-3y-9)
vampirchik [111]
Since the operation between the two sets of parentheses is addition, we don't have to do anything with it, and can remove the parentheses.
Our new expression is: 2y^2+9y+4-3y^2-3y-9

Now, we just add like terms together to solve for the simplest form of the expression.
2y^2+9y+4-3y^2-3y-9
(2-3)y^2+(9-3)y+(4-9)
-y^2+6y-5

Our final answer is -y^2+6y-5.
