Answer:

The midpoint between the joining points C and D is (2, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

How to find a midpoint

  • 1: Label the coordinates(x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂).
  • 2: Input the values into the formula.
  • 3: Add the values in the parentheses and divide each result by 2.
  • 4: The new values form the new coordinates of the midpoint.

Suppose we have a line segment and want to cut that section into two equal parts. To do so, we need to know the center. We can achieve this by finding the midpoint. You could measure with a ruler or just use a formula involving the coordinates of each endpoint of the segment. The midpoint is simply the average of each coordinate of the section, forming a new coordinate point. We shall illustrate this below.

Midpoint formula

If we have coordinates (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂), then the midpoint of these coordinates is determined by (x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2. This forms a new coordinate you can call (x₃,y₃).  It is possible to divide a line segment into any given ratio, not just 1:1.

500 cats were chosen. 52% of the cats liked to sleep inside the house. Fish was the favorite dish of 25% of those cats, while 62
Alex777 [14]
You would need to take 500 * .52 = 260 next take 260 * .25 to find how many cats like fish which equals 65, the probability that it likes fish and it sleeps inside can be found by taking .52 * .25 = .13 so there would be a 13% chance of picking a cat that sleeps indoors and likes fish, 435 cats dont like fish found by taking 500-65=435 and finally to find how many cats sleep outside take 500-260=240 then take 240 * .625 = 150 then 240-150 = 90 so 90 cats like to sleep outside and like fish thats it!=) Hope this helps!

What is 2 gallons minus 5 quarts
MariettaO [177]
There are 4 quarts in a gallon.
In two gallons would be 8 quarts.

2 gallons - 5 quarts = 8 quarts - 5 quarts = 3 quarts.

Note: 3 quarts is 3/4 or .75 of a gallon.

A soccer ball is kicked vertically from the ground with an initial velocity of 96 ft/sec.
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

h(t) = - 16t² + 96t

Step-by-step explanation:

A soccer ball is kicked vertically from the ground with an initial velocity of 96 ft/sec.

So, it initial height, h_0 = 0 ft. and initial velocity v_0 = 96 feet/sec.

Now, the quadratic function, h(t), that shows the height, in feet, of the soccer ball, t seconds after it was kicked will be given by the general equation

h(t) = - 16t^{2} + v_0t + h_0

⇒ h(t) = - 16t² + 96t + 0

⇒ h(t) = - 16t² + 96t (Answer)
