Question

The midpoint between x and 27 is -3 find x

Answer 1

Explanation:

Answer 2

`x=-33`

Explanation:

we know that

The formula of midpoint between two points is equal to

`M=(1)/(2)(x1+x2)`

In this problem we have

`M=-3`

`x1=x`

`x2=27`

substitute the values and solve for x

`-3=(1)/(2)(x+27)`

`-6=(x+27)`

`x=-6-27=-33`
