okay now i need help with this one rayGI bisects

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

bisects means 2 equal parts... so then x - 3 = 2x - 12 solve for x

OpenStudy (dragon123mama):

Geometry is harder than algebra

OpenStudy (dragon123mama):

okay give me a sec to figure that out

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

its all about knowing key terms

OpenStudy (dragon123mama):

so then X=2x-9 then 3x=-9 x=-3??

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

not quite x - 3 = 2x - 12 +12 +12 -------------- x + 9 = 2x -x -x ------------ 9 = x

OpenStudy (dragon123mama):

oh i see i moved the 2 over not the 12 first.. got it

OpenStudy (dragon123mama):

thank you so much, this makes more sence. i gotta try to remember the method.
