Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to subtract both sides by 12x

12x+ 2y=18

-12x -12x

That will give you: 2y= 18-12x

Next, you need to deviede both sides by 2

2y/2= 18-12x/2

That gives you the answer:

y= 18-6x

(im not 100% sure but i think this is right, feel free to correct me)

Answer:

Simplifying

12x + 2y = 18

Solving

12x + 2y = 18

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2y' to each side of the equation.

12x + 2y + -2y = 18 + -2y

Combine like terms: 2y + -2y = 0

12x + 0 = 18 + -2y

12x = 18 + -2y

Divide each side by '12'.

x = 1.5 + -0.1666666667y

Simplifying

x = 1.5 + -0.1666666667y

Sylvia puts in $121.

10% of (multiply) $210.
210= 100 each person plus an additional ten from Leroi
so .10*210 = $21.
Add Sylvia's $100 plus $21 and viola, $121

Endpoint given the Midpoint: * The midpoint of RP is M(2, 4). If one of the end points is R(-1,7), find the coordinates of the o

marin [14]

Answer:

The coordinates of other point are: (5,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given coordinates are:

M(x,y) = (2,4)

R(x_1,x_2) = (-1,7)

We have to find the coordinates of other point (x2,y2)

The formula for mid-point is given by:

$M(x,y) = (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$

Putting the values we get

$(2,4) = (\frac{-1+x_2}{2}, \frac{7+y_2}{2})$

Putting respective elements equal

$\frac{-1+x_2}{2} = 2\\-1+x_2 = 2*2\\-1+x_2 = 4\\x_2 = 4+1\\x_2 = 5\\And\\\frac{7+y_2}{2} = 4\\7+y_2 = 4*2\\7+y_2 = 8\\y_2 = 8-7\\y_2 = 1$

Hence,

The coordinates of other point are: (5,1)
