Answer: 3 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5=0.2

11/2=1.5

1/2=0.5

Use proportion to solve this problem

0.2:1.5=0.5:x

x*0.2=1.5*0.5

x=1.5*0.5/0.2

X=3.75 =3 3/4 h

- Find the coordinates of A if B(0,5.5) is the midpoint of AC and C has coordinates<br><br> (-3,6).
emmainna [20.7K]

Given:

Coordinates of point C are (-3,6).

Point B(0,5.5) is the midpoint of AC.

To find:

The coordinates of A.

Solution:

Let the coordinates of point A are (a,b).

Formula for midpoint:

Midpoint=\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)

Using the above formula, the midpoint of A(a,b) and C(-3,6) is

B=\left(\dfrac{a+(-3)}{2},\dfrac{b+6}{2}\right)

(0,5.5)=\left(\dfrac{a-3}{2},\dfrac{b+6}{2}\right)

On comparing both sides, we get

\dfrac{a-3}{2}=0

a-3=0

a=3

and,

\dfrac{b+6}{2}=5.5

b+6=11

b=11-6

b=5

Therefore, the coordinates of point A are (3,5).

mixer [17]

Let width be x

  • length=4x

ATQ

\\ \sf\longmapsto 2(x+4x)=70

\\ \sf\longmapsto 5x=35

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=7

  • Width=7ft
  • Length=7(4)=28ft
