Answer:

x=68

Step-by-step explanation:

We begin by setting up as a proportion. 99.2 and 112 ft are across from each other so we can put those as our numerators. Additionally 62 and (x+2) ft are across from each other so we can put those as denominators. Now we can set up our proportion and begin to cross multiply:

99.2/62 = 112/(x+2) is our equation. It might help you see it clearly to write it out as fractions. From here, we cross multiply.

When we do that, we get x=68

M(7,3) is the midpoint of RS.The coordinates of point S are (8,4).What are the coordinates of R?

lbvjy [14]

It would be (6,2) because the difference between (7,3) and (8,4) is one for both x and y. Therefore, you minus one from both x and y, which is (6,2)
