Answer:
x = - 2, x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
- 3x² - 6x ← factor out - 3x from each term
= - 3x(x + 2)
To solve equate to zero
- 3x(x + 2) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
- 3x = 0 ⇒ x = 0
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
The formula to find the midpoint of a segment is ((x1 + x2)/2,),(y1 + y2)/2).
The x coordinate of the first point is -4, and the x coordinate of the second point is -8. The y coordinate of the first point is 6, and the y coordinate of the second point is -2. Now, we can plug these into our formula.
((-4 + (-8))/2), (6 + (-2))/2)) = (-12/2), (4/2) = (-6, 2)
So, (-6, 2) is the midpoint of the segment.
