Find the midpoint of the line segment joining the points P1 and P2. P1 = (x, 8); P2 = (0, 9)

Mathematics

ipn [44]2 years ago

Answer:

(x/2 , 17/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a midpoint, you average the x's and average the y's. Average them by adding the x-coordinates and divide by 2. Same with the y's.

The x's are x for P1 and 0 for P2.

x+0 / 2

=x/2

This will be the x-coordinate of the midpoint. Then for the y, use 8 and 9, the y's.

8+9 / 2

= 17/2

This will be the y-coordinate of the midpoint.

The midpoint is:

(x/2 , 17/2)

You could also divide 17/2 and get 8.5 then the midpoint would be:

(x/2 , 8.5)

A snail can crawl 2/5 of a meter in a minute.
gavmur [86]
For 2/5 meter, it takes = 1 min.
For 1 meter, it is = 5/2 min.

In short, Your Answer would be 15 minutes

Hope this helps!

A store has clearance items that have been marked down by 60% they having a sale, advertising an additional 30% off clearance it
bagirrra123 [75]

The original price is 100% of the price. If the price is marked 60% off, then you pay 40% of the original price.

An item costs x dollars.

With the 60% off discount, it now costs 40% of x, or 0.4x.

Now you apply a 30% discount.

For the second discount, consider the price 0.4x to be the new original price. If the price is now discounted 30%, you will pay 70% of the new original price.

Start with 0.4x.

Now calculate 70% of 0.4x.

70% of 0.4x = 0.70 * 0.4x = 0.28x

After applying the 60% discount and the 30% discount, the item that originally cost x now costs 0.28x. 0.28x is the same as 28% of x. The amount you pay is 28% of the original price.

Answer: 28%

I think is b but not sure<br> It could be c
MaRussiya [10]

Hello!! Actually I got A x = 2, y = 12.

Whenever you plug them in, 2(2) + 3(12) = 40

-2(2) + 2(12) = 20

It worked for me this way, I hope this is the right answer. Have a great day!

A guy-wire extends from the top of a cell phone tower to a point on the
Fed [463]

Answer:

79.1 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a vertical segment about 3 inches tall. Label the upper endpoint A and the lower endpoint B. That is the cell phone tower. Starting at point B, draw a horizontal segment 1 inch long to the right. Label the right endpoint C. Connect C to A with a segment.

Segment BC is 25 ft long. Segment AB is 75 ft long. Angle B is a right angle.

You are looking for the length of segment AC, the guy wire length.

Triangle ABC is a right triangle with right angle B.

Sides AB and BC are the legs, and side AC is the hypotenuse.

We can use the Pythagorean Theorem:

(leg1)^2 + (leg2)^2 = (hyp)^2

Let one leg be a, the other leg be b, and let the hypotenuse be c.

Then you have

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

We have a = 75 ft

b = 25 ft

We are looking for c, the length of the hypotenuse.

(75 ft)^2 + (25 ft)^2 = c^2

5625 ft^2 + 625 ft^2 = c^2

6250 ft^2 = c^2

c^2 = 6250 ft^2

Take the square root of both sides.

c = 79.0569... ft

Answer: 79.1 ft
