Answer: x= -7

Step-by-step explanation:

-5 (x+3) =20

Divide both sides by -5:

-5(x+3)/ -5 = 20/-5

Simplify:

x+3= -4

Subtract 3 from both sides:

x+3-3 + -4-3

Simplify:

x= -7

Find the other endpoint of the line segment with the given endpoint and midpoint: endpoint(1.7, -4.6) midpoint (-7.5, 0.3).. (ne
Sergio [31]

Answer:

(- 16.7, 5.2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

let the coordinates of the endpoint be (x , y )

using the midpoint formula

consider the x- coordinate

\frac{1}{2}(x + 1.7) = - 7.5 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

x + 1. 7 = - 7.5 ( subtract 1.7 from both sides )

x = - 16.7

consider the y-coordinate

\frac{1}{2}(y - 4.6 ) = 0.3 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

y - 4.6 = 0.6 ( add 4.6 to both sides )

y = 5.2

endpoint = (- 16.7, 5.2 )
