Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If A, B and C lies on a straight line in order, then;

AB+BC = AC

x+12+2x-4 = 26

x+2x+12-4 =26

3x+8 = 26

3x = 26-8

3x = 18

x = 18/3

x = 6

Hence the value of x is 6

Find the midpoint P(16,7) and Q(12, -3) With work.
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

(14, 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the midpoint formula

[0.5(x₁ + x₂), 0.5(y₁ + y₂) ]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (16, 7) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (12, - 3)

midpoint = [0.5(16 + 12), 0.5(7 - 3) ] = [0.5(28), 0.5(4) ] = (14, 2 )
