Answer:

(25, 29)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint formula can be solved to give an expression for one end point of a line segment in terms of the other end point and the midpoint.

<h3>Formula</h3>

The midpoint (M) of segment AB is found from ...

M = (A +B)/2

Solving for B, we get ...

B = 2M -A

<h3>Application</h3>

For A(-9, -1) and M(8, 14), we find the end point B to be ...

B = 2(8, 14) -(-9, -1)

B = (16 -(-9), 28 -(-1)) = (25, 29)

The other end point is (25, 29.

The set A = {1, 3, 5}. What is a larger set this might be a subset of?

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A larger set that a particular set can be a subset of is a Universal set. A universal set is parent where all other sets are derived from.

For example, given a universal set U = {1,2,3,4,5}, a set A = {1, 3, 5} is said to be a subset of the set U because the elements of set B are contained in the Universal set U.

Also, sets like {1, 4,5} and {3,4,5} can also be regarded as the subset of U since all the elements of the sets can be found in the Universal set U. Hence the correct name of the set is a UNIVERSAL SET
