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.

Find the x and y intercepts of y = 2x^3 - 4x^2 algebraically
poizon [28]

The x-intercept is the place where y = 0 and the y-intercept is the point where x = 0. Using this information, we can substitute 0 in for x and y to find the intercepts.


x-intercepts (where y = 0):

2x^3 - 4x^2 = 0

x^2(2x - 4) = 0

Here we can apply the Zero Product Property to find x^2 = 0 and 2x - 4 = 0 separately.

x^2 = 0

x = 0

AND

2x - 4 = 0

2x = 4

x = 2

The x-intercepts are located at (0, 0) and (2, 0).


y-intercept (where x = 0):

y = 2(0)^3 - 4(0)^2

y = 0

The y-intercept is located at (0, 0).

Company A offers a starting salary of $28000 with a raise of $3000 each year, Company B offers a starting salary of $36000 with
telo118 [61]
We can conclude that both will intersect at a certain angle, depending on this algorithm I created.

28000 + 3000x = 36000 + 2000x

The f(x) intercept for g(x) is = 9 and -9

If you square this by light, the arithmetic of 9x+5x=21s(x)

Thus we can simply and get 11 years.
