If the distance is 45 miles and speed of both cyclist is 14 and 16 miles per hour then they will take time of 1.5 hour to meet.

Given First cyclist is riding at 14 miles per hour and second at 16 miles per hour. The distance is 45 miles.

We know that speed is the distance covered by an object in a particular period of time.

Speed=distance/time.

It is expressed as kilometers per hour or miles per hour, etc.

If both riders are riding towards each other then the speed will be 16+14 =30 miles per hour.

Distance=45 miles.

Time =distance/speed

=45/30

=1.5

Hence if first cyclist is riding at 14 miles per hour and second is riding at 14 miles per hour and the distance is 45 miles then they will meet after 1.5 hours.

Find the coordinates of the missing endpoint given E is the midpoint of DF. F(5,8) E(4,3)
masha68 [24]

Answer:

(3,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoints bisect a line into two perfectly congruent segments. So, you can find that f was translated down 5=(8-3) and left 1=(5-4). then repeat this step by subtracting x of point e by 1 and the y of point e by 5 to get (3,-2)
