For the answer to the question above asking to f<span>ind the coordinates of Z without using any new variables. 
</span>

Vector WZ equals vector VP, which is (p, -q) 
So Z is (-p - r + p, q - q) which is (-r, 0)
I hope my answer helped you.

Answer:

The coordinates are (-r,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinates of parallelogram PVWZ are P(0,0), V(-p,q), and W(-p-r, q). we have to find the coordinates of Z.

Let coordinates of Z(x,y)

As the diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other.

Therefore, by using mid-point formula

If (x_1,y_1)\text{ and }(x_2,y_2) \text{ are the coordinates of line segment the coordinates of mid-point are}

(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

Mid-point of line segment joining the line P(0,0) and W(-p-r, q).

(\frac{-p-r}{2},\frac{q}{2})

Mid-point of line segment joining the line V(-p, q) and Z(x,y)

(\frac{-p+x}{2},\frac{q+y}{2})

As the diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other.

(\frac{-p-r}{2},\frac{q}{2})=(\frac{-p+x}{2},\frac{q+y}{2})

Comparing, we get

\frac{-p+x}{2}=\frac{-p-r}{2}

x=-r

\frac{q}{2}=\frac{q+y}{2}

y=0

Hence, the coordinates are (-r,0)

Vlada [557]

Answer:

y -  y'  = m(x - x') \\ (x - x') =  \frac{(y - y')}{m}  \\ x =  \frac{(y - y')}{m}  + x'

One number is 4 more than another. the difference between their squares is 64. what are the numbers
lora16 [44]
We have to set up 2 different equations if we are to solve for 2 unknowns.  The first equation is x = y + 4.  One number (x) is (=) 4 more than another (y + 4).  Since we have determined that x is larger (cuz it's 4 more than y), when we set up their difference, we are going to subtract y from x cuz x is bigger.  The second equation then is x^{2} - y^{2} =64.  In our first equation we said that x = y + 4, so let's sub that value in for x in the second equation: (y+4) ^{2} - y^{2} =64.  Expand that binomial to get y^{2} +8y+16- y^{2} =64.  Of course the y squared terms cancel each other out leaving us with 8y + 16 = 64.  Solving for y we get that y = 6.  Subbing 6 in for y in our first equation, x = 6 + 4 tells us that x = 10. Yay!
