Let x be an variable.
\Find the point that is the same distance from 0 and 0.5 i.e. mid point between 0 and 0.5.
\Mid point "M" = ![\"\"](\"/test/fckeditor/editor/plugins/fckeditor_wiris/integration/showimage.php?formula=9d5bc061f44fff6a6f4327edeedd0f0b.png\")
Mid point between 0 and 0.5 is 0.25.
\The distance from 0 to 0.25 is 0.25 units.
\The distance from 0.25 to 0.5 is 0.25 units.
\So the equation is ![\"\"](\"/test/fckeditor/editor/plugins/fckeditor_wiris/integration/showimage.php?formula=523e72ff7b3fbd2137ce29b1e429f60b.png\")
