Using the midpoint concept, it is found that the value of a is of a = 2.

<h3>What are the coordinates of the points?</h3>

Researching this problem on a search engine, the coordinates are given as follows:

  • F(b + 1, a + 2).
  • M(3,5).
  • (2a, 3b+3).

<h3>What is the midpoint concept?</h3>

The midpoint between two points is the halfway point between them, and is found using the mean of the coordinates.

Hence the following system of equations can be built:

(b + 1 + 2a)/2 = 3.

b + 1 + 2a = 6.

b = 5 - 2a.

(a + 2 + 3b + 3)/2 = 5

a + 3b + 5 = 10

a + 3b = 5.

Since b = 5 - 2a, we have that:

a + 15 - 6a = 5.

5a = 10

a = 10/5

a = 2.

The value of a is of a = 2.

Please help. I need a step by step explanation. Extra points will be given as well as brainiest!!!
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

V =113.04

Step-by-step explanation:

A sphere has a surface area of 113.04

SA = 4 pi r^2

113.04 = 4 pi r^2

Let pi 3.14

113.04 = 4 *(3.14) r^2

113.04 = 12.56 r^2

Divide each side by 12.56

113.04/12.56 = r^2

9 = r^2

Take the square root of each side

3 =r

We want to find the volume

V = 4/3 pi r^3

V = 4/3 (3.14) 3^3

V =113.04

What is the slope of the line passing through (1, 2) and (3, 3)?
enot [183]

Answer:

Slope is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the slope formula y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

(x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) → (1,2) and (3,3)

So...

3-2=1

3-1=2

If h(x) = (f o g)(x) and h(x) = ∛7x+1, find f(x) and g(x)
Mariana [72]
There's more than one way to combine them really
but an obvious one will be

\bf \begin{array}{llll}&#10;h(x)&=&(f\circ g)(x)\\\\&#10;&&\sqrt[3]{7x+1}\\\\&#10;&&\sqrt[3]{g(x)}\leftarrow &#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x }\\\\&#10;g(x)=7x+1&#10;\end{array}&#10;\end{array}\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;(f\circ g)(x)\iff f[\quad g(x)\quad ]=\sqrt[3]{g(x)}\implies  f[\quad g(x)\quad ]=\sqrt[3]{7x+1}
