Using the given information, the midpoint of CD is (2.5, 4.5)

<h3>Midpoint of a line </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the midpoint of line CD

The midpoint of a line is given by the formula,

[(x₁ + x₂)/2 , (y₁ + y₂)/2]

From the given information, we are to find the midpoint of line CD with coordinates C(4,5) and D(1,4)

∴ x₁ = 4

x₂ = 1

y₁ = 5

y₂ = 4

Putting the parameters into the formula for midpoint, we get

[(x₁ + x₂)/2 , (y₁ + y₂)/2]

[(4 + 1)/2 , (5 + 4)/2]

(5/2 , 9/2)

(2.5, 4.5)

Hence, the midpoint of CD is (2.5, 4.5)

Find the solution of the problem (1 3. (2 cos x - y sin x)dx + (cos x + sin y)dy=0.

lakkis [162]

Answer:

$2*sin(x)+y*cos(x)-cos(y)=C_1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let:

$P(x,y)=2*cos(x)-y*sin(x)$

$Q(x,y)=cos(x)+sin(y)$

This is an exact differential equation because:

$\frac{\partial P(x,y)}{\partial y} =-sin(x)$

$\frac{\partial Q(x,y)}{\partial x}=-sin(x)$

With this in mind let's define f(x,y) such that:

$\frac{\partial f(x,y)}{\partial x}=P(x,y)$

and

$\frac{\partial f(x,y)}{\partial y}=Q(x,y)$

So, the solution will be given by f(x,y)=C1, C1=arbitrary constant

Now, integrate $\frac{\partial f(x,y)}{\partial x}$ with respect to x in order to find f(x,y)

$f(x,y)=\int\ 2*cos(x)-y*sin(x)\, dx =2*sin(x)+y*cos(x)+g(y)$

where g(y) is an arbitrary function of y

Let's differentiate f(x,y) with respect to y in order to find g(y):

$\frac{\partial f(x,y)}{\partial y}=\frac{\partial }{\partial y} (2*sin(x)+y*cos(x)+g(y))=cos(x)+\frac{dg(y)}{dy}$

Now, let's replace the previous result into $\frac{\partial f(x,y)}{\partial y}=Q(x,y)$ :

$cos(x)+\frac{dg(y)}{dy}=cos(x)+sin(y)$

Solving for $\frac{dg(y)}{dy}$

$\frac{dg(y)}{dy}=sin(y)$

Integrating both sides with respect to y:

$g(y)=\int\ sin(y) \, dy =-cos(y)$

Replacing this result into f(x,y)

$f(x,y)=2*sin(x)+y*cos(x)-cos(y)$

Finally the solution is f(x,y)=C1 :

$2*sin(x)+y*cos(x)-cos(y)=C_1$

What is the solution to this inequality?

Reptile [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides by 12 to get x+36<_84.

Then move the constant to the right to get x by itself: x<_84-36

Subtract 36 from 84 to get 48.

Now you're left with x<_48

btw <_ is less than or greater than i just don't know how to place the sign on top of the underscore :/ hope this helped :)
