Step-by-step explanation:
Xj + Xk/2 = Xm
7 + Xk/2 = 1
to get rid of the bracket, multiply all two sides by the denominator.
2(7 + Xk/2) = 1(2)
7 + Xk = 2
Xk = 2 - 7
Xk = -5
Yj + Yk/2 = Ym
2 + Yk/2 = -2
to get rid of the bracket, multiply all two sides by the denominator.
2(2 + Yk/2) = -2(2)
2 + Yk = -4
Yk = -4 - 2
Yk = -6
Therefore the coordinates of point K is (-5,-6)
= 5x + 35 = -3
- 35 = -35
5x = -38
/ 5 = / 5
x = -7.6
Isolate x by adding 8 to both sides.
3 = x/3
Then, multiply by 3 on both sides.
9 = x
To prove that this is right, you can imput 9 into the equation and it equals -5.
15-4X=-10-11X
-4X+11X=-10-15
7X=-25
X=-25/7
that's what it is
