Question

Point C is twice as close to point B as it is to point A. If point A is at -30 and point B is at 30, what are two possible values for c?

Answer 1

different between A and B

=30-(-30)

=60

position of C from A or B

=(60÷3)×2

=40

possible value of c

=-30+40

=10

possible value of c

=30-40

=-10

Answer 2

different between A and B

=30-(-30)

=60

position of C from A or B

=(60÷3)×2

=40

possible value of c

=-30+40

=10

possible value of c

=30-40

=-10
