Let L represent 0 on the number line, and F represent 6 on the number line. The point between L and F that is twice as far from L as it is from F \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "Draw a number line. \n" ); document.write( "Plot the points L=0 and F=6 \n" ); document.write( "Let x be the point beween L and F the as twice as far from L \n" ); document.write( "as it is from F. \n" ); document.write( "Then Lx+xF = 6 \n" ); document.write( "and Lx = 2*xF \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "Substitute for Lx and solve for xF \n" ); document.write( "2xF+xF = 6 \n" ); document.write( "3xF = 6 \n" ); document.write( "xF = 2 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Since Lx+xF=6, Lx = 4 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Therefore x is 4 to the right of L. \n" ); document.write( "======================================== \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "===============\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
