Hey there!
2/3 = a/30
First: you have to CROSS MULTIPLY the given numbers
2(30) = 3(a)
2(30) = 60
3(a) = 3a
New EQUATION: 3a = 60
Second: DIVIDE 3 to BOTH SIDES
3a/3 = 60/3
CANCEL out: 3/3 because that gives you 1
KEEP: 60/3 because that helps you solve for your a-value
60/3 = a
60/3 = 20
Therefore, your answer is: a = 20
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Well, if you want to get p by itself, you will have to multiply both sides by 5/2. 2/5 times 5/2 gives you 1p, or just p.
Answer:
(4, 7)
Step-by-step explanation:
The midpoint formula is (((x1 + x2)/2), ((y1+y2)/2)))
x1 +x2 = 1 +7 = 8
8/2 = 4
y1 + y2 = 10 + 4 = 14
14/2 = 7
(4, 7) is the midpoint
