Janae found pointa located at ,5) and c is located at (6,1) . what would be the x coordinate of point b that bisects a and c?

A point that bisects a segment would be its midpoint. This is a case where the vocabulary  (bisect as opposed to midpoint) makes it harder.

To find the midpoint, we use the midpoint formula. The midpoint formula is:

midpoint = (x₁ + x₂/2, y₁ + y/2). To find it, you add the x coordinates and then divide them by 2. Repeat for the y coordinates.

x: (-2 + 6)/2 = 4/2 = 2

y: (5 +1)/2 = 6/2 = 3

Thus the point B bisecting AC is at (2, 3).

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

apply the exponent property - this says that :

distribute the log terms on both sides:

group like terms together:

divide through both sides by the coefficient on :

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:
