@Chlorophyll, @Hero, @ilikephysics2, @TuringTest can any of you answer this question? :$ :$

anonymous · Answer

$$x + \frac{ y-x }{ 2 } = \frac{ x+2 }{ 2 }$$

anonymous · Answer

anyone? :$

I'd have to brush up on vectors bro

anonymous · Answer

oh shoot :(

anonymous · Answer

if its confusing because they are vectors, just think of them as normal variables.  $$x+\left(\frac{y-x}{2}\right)=x+\frac{y}{2}-\frac{x}{2}$$try to get it from there.

anonymous · Answer

i don't know if I have the right approach but is it like this way:

$$x + \left(\begin{matrix}y \ 2\end{matrix}\right) - \left(\begin{matrix}x \ 2\end{matrix}\right)$$
$$2x + y - x + x + y$$
