If the line segment point is D(-5, 10) and E(a,b) and the midpoint of the segment is F(13, -2) that mean
DE= 2*DF
You can directly find the distance of AC
Xdf= Xf-Xd= 13 - (-5)= 18
Ydf= Yf - Yd= -2 - 10= -12
Then add the distance of AB( which is 2*AC) to point D
Xe= a = Xd + 2*Xdf
a= -5 +2*18= 31
Ye= b = Yd + 2Yf
b= 10+ 2*-12= -14
<span>absolute difference between a and b:
|b-a|= </span>|-14-31|= 45
since there is always a decimal at the end of every value so :
= 262144.0
you move the decimal backwards if there is no decimal between the value. you place the decimal after the 1st digit, you will also count the digits you have passed :
= 2.62144 X 10^5
you passed 5 values so you put 5 in exponent form.
He spent $5.80.
1 x 4/5 = 0.8
1 x 5 = 5
