Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinate of the midpoint of a line is gotten by adding the values of the two end points and then dividing the result by 2.

Given that M is the midpoint of AB, A = 7y and B = 3x, hence the coordinate of point M is given as:

M = (A + B)/2 = (7y + 3x)/2

Also, C is the midpoint of AM, hence the coordinates of point C is given as:

C=\frac{A+M}{2}\\ \\C=\frac{7y+\frac{3x+7y}{2} }{2}\\ \\C=\frac{\frac{14y+3x+7y}{2} }{2}\\ \\C=\frac{21y+3x }{4}

Hence the coordinates for point C is C=\frac{21y+3x }{4}

Glenn needs to cut pieces of ribbon that are each 1 meter long to make ribbon key chains. If he has 6 pieces of ribbon that are
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Glenn needs to cut pieces of ribbon that are each 1 meter long to make ribbon key chains. If he has 6 pieces of ribbon that are each 1 dekameter long, how many 1−meter pieces of ribbon can he cut?

1 decametre = 10 metres

Hence,

10 meters = 6 pieces of ribbon

1 meter = x pieces

Cross Multiply

10x = 6

x = 6/10

x = 2/3 (1 meter pieces of ribbon)

M is the incenter of triangle ABC. Find the lengths of MD and DC. (Look at pic)
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Part 1) MD=9\ units

Part 2) DC=12\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find the length of MD

we know that

The incenter is the intersection of the angle bisectors of the three vertices of the triangle. Is the point forming the origin of a circle inscribed inside the triangle

so

In this problem

MD=ME=MF ------> is the radius of a circle inscribed inside the triangle

we have that

MF=9\ units

therefore

ME=9\ units

MD=9\ units

Step 2

Find the length of DC

we know that

In the right triangle MDC

Applying the Pythagoras theorem

MC^{2} =MD^{2}+DC^{2}

we have

MD=9\ units

MC=15\ units

substitute

15^{2} =9^{2}+DC^{2}

DC^{2}=225-81

DC=\sqrt{144}\ units

DC=12\ units

D) Matthew travels two and one-half miles to get to
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

5/6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Matthews travels 2.5 miles → this is 3 times the distance that Jennifer travels

Jennifer travels 2.5 / 3 miles  = 5/6 miles

because,

2.5 =  2 and 1/2 = 5/2

(5/2) ÷ 3 = (5/2) *(1/3) = 5*1/ 2*3 = 5/6
