  (-5, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

That point P can be found from ...

  P = A + 1/5(B -A)

  P = (4/5)A +(1/5)B = (4A +B)/5

  P = (4(-6, -4) +(-1, 6))/5 = (-24-1, -16+6)/5 = (-25, -10)/5

  P = (-5, -2)

the answer is (-5,-2)

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2
