Anything 4 and below gets rounded down.
Anything 5 and up gets rounded up.
Great question! A midpoint is exactly what it sounds like; the point in the middle of two objects (in this case it's the middle of these two coordinates). Another way to think of the middle of something in math is by using the average. To find the midpoint of two points, we just find the average of the x-values and the average of the y-values:
((x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2)
((5 + -13) / 2 , (-4 + 12) / 2)
( -8 / 2 , 8 / 2)
(-4 , 4)
Answer: 2a - 3b
You can try rearranging it , it’ll be easier I think :)
3a + 6b - a - 9b
= 3a - a + 6b - 9b
= 2a - 3b
For the answer to the question above,
<span>V(n) = a * b^n, where V(n) shows the value of boat after n years.
V(0) = 3500
V(2) = 2000
n = 0
V(0) = a * b^0 = 3500
a = 3500
V(2) = a * b^2
2000 = 3500 * b^2
b = sqrt (2000/3500)
b ≈ 0.76
V(n) = 3500 * 0.76^n
We can check it for n = 1 which is close to 2500 in the graph:
V(1) = 3500 * (0.76)^1
V(1) = 2660
And in the graph we have V(3) ≈ 1500,
V(n) = 3500 * (0.76)^3 ≈ 1536
Now n = 9.5
V(9.5) = 3500 * (0.76)^(9.5)
V(9.5) ≈ 258</span>
