Answer: The correct option is

(A) $\left(\dfrac{1}{2},-\dfrac{5}{2}\right).$

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the mid-point of the line segment CD shown in the graph.

From the graph, we note that

the co-ordinates of the endpoints of the line segment CD are (-3, -4) and D(4, -1).

We know that

the co-ordinates of the midpoint of a line segment with endpoints (a, b) and (c, d) are given by

$M=\left(\dfrac{a+c}{2},\dfrac{b+d}{2}\right).$

Therefore, he co-ordinates of the midpoint of line segment CD are

$M=\left(\dfrac{-3+4}{2},\dfrac{-4+(-1)}{2}\right)=\left(\dfrac{1}{2},-\dfrac{5}{2}\right).$

Thus, the required midpoint of CD is $\left(\dfrac{1}{2},-\dfrac{5}{2}\right).$

Option (A) is CORRECT.

To find the midpoint, add both x values together and divide by two and then add both y values together and divide by two.

Midpoint X = (-3 +4)/2 = 1/2

Midpoint y = (-4 + -1)/2 = -5/2

Midpoint = (1/2, -5/2)

3 Ximena draws an X shape in the coordinate plane as shown. Draw the images of

VARVARA [1.3K]

When a shape is rotated, it must be rotated around a point.

See attachment for the image of each rotation.

To do this, the top coordinates of the X shape will be transformed using the appropriate rotation rule; the same rule will then be applied to the other parts of the X shape.

The top coordinates of the X shape are:

$A = (0,0)$

$B = (1,0)$

$C = (3,0)$

$D =(4,0)$

For 90 degrees counterclockwise rotation, the rule is:

$(x,y) \to (-y,x)$

So, we have:

$A' = (0,0)$

$B' = (0,1)$

$C' = (0,3)$

$D' = (0,4)$

For 180 degrees rotation, the rule is:

$(x,y) \to (-x,-y)$

So, we have:

$A' = (0,0)$

$B' = (-1,0)$

$C' = (-3,0)$

$D' = (-4,0)$

For 270 degrees counter rotation, the rule is:

$(x,y) \to (y,-x)$

So, we have:

$A' = (0,0)$

$B' = (0,-1)$

$C' = (0,-3)$

$D' = (0,-4)$

See attachment for the image of each rotation

What are the numerical measures of each angle in the diagram? 1 and 3 measure degrees. 2 and 4 measure degrees. (3x - 1)º (2x +

Tanya [424]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the diagram shown, the measure of angle 1 is oppositely directed to angle 2 and oppositely directed angles are equal.

Hence <1 = <3

Given < 1 = 3x-1 and <3 = 2x+9

Hence 3x-1 = 2x+9

collect like terms

3x-2x = 9+1

x = 10°

Since <1 = 3x-1

on substituting x = 10

<1 = 3(10)-1

<1 = 30-1

<1 = 29°

<1+<2 = 180 (angle on a straight line)

29+<2 = 180

<2 = 180-29

<2 = 151°

Similarly, on substituting x = 10 into <3

<3 = 2x+9

<3 = 2(10)+9

<3 = 20+9

<3 = 29°

<3+<4 = 180 (angle on a straight line)

29+<4 = 180

<4 = 180-29

<4 = 151°

A circle is described by the equation x2 + y2 + 14x + 2y + 14 = 0. What are the coordinates for the center of the circle and the

Alona [7]

We are given the expression of the equation of a circle that is x2 + y2 + 14x + 2y + 14 = 0. Using ocmpleting the squares:
x2 + y2 + 14x + 2y + 14 = 0(x+7)^2 + (y+1) ^2 = -14 + 49 + 1(x+7)^2 + (y+1) ^2 = 36 center thus is at (-7,-1) and the radius is equal ot square root of 36 equal to 6.
