Answer:
x= 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>The <u>correct answer</u> is:
The midpoint of a segment.
Explanation<span>:
To construct a line parallel to another line through a given point, the first thing you do is fold the given line onto itself, making sure that the given point is on the fold. This is the same construction used to find the midpoint of a segment.
Unfold the paper, and the crease made with the fold creates a line through the given point and given line. Fold this new line (crease) onto itself, making sure the given point is in the fold. This is again the same construction used to find the midpoint of a segment, and this creates our parallel line through our given point.</span></span>
Answer:
(-162)/7 or -23 1/7 as mixed fraction
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
(-36)/14 (-18) (-3)/6
Hint: | Express (-36)/14 (-18) (-3)/6 as a single fraction.
(-36)/14 (-18) (-3)/6 = (-36 (-18) (-3))/(14×6):
(-36 (-18) (-3))/(14×6)
Hint: | In (-36 (-18) (-3))/(14×6), divide -18 in the numerator by 6 in the denominator.
(-18)/6 = (6 (-3))/6 = -3:
(-36-3 (-3))/14
Hint: | In (-36 (-3) (-3))/14, the numbers -36 in the numerator and 14 in the denominator have gcd greater than one.
The gcd of -36 and 14 is 2, so (-36 (-3) (-3))/14 = ((2 (-18)) (-3) (-3))/(2×7) = 2/2×(-18 (-3) (-3))/7 = (-18 (-3) (-3))/7:
(-18 (-3) (-3))/7
Hint: | Multiply -18 and -3 together.
-18 (-3) = 54:
(54 (-3))/7
Hint: | Multiply 54 and -3 together.
54 (-3) = -162:
Answer: (-162)/7
I got x=-4 for the answer
