Answer:

A. (a, 0)

D. (a/2,b/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

(a, 0) lies on one side of the triangle, because it is between (0,0) and (2a,0)

(0, b) doesn't lie on one side of the triangle, because only the only point with x-coordinate = 0 is (0,0)

(–a, b) doesn't lie on one side of the triangle, because only positive values are valid

Imagine the triangle with vertices (0,0), (a, 0) and (a,b). Let's call β the angle at vertex (0,0)

tan(β) = b/a

For triangle with vertices (0,0), (a/2, 0) and (a/2,b/2)

tan(β) = (b/2)/(a/2) = b/a

then, (a/2,b/2) lies on one side of the triangle

For triangle with vertices (0,0), (a/3, 0) and (a/3,b/4)

tan(β) = (b/4)/(a/3) = (3/4)*(b/a) ≠ b/a

then, (a/3,b/4) doesn't lie on one side of the triangle

A bus as speed of 20m/s begin to slow at constant acceleration of 8.00m/s2 along a straight line find the average speed for the
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

-20 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the average speed is shown below:

Given that

The initial velocity of the bus, u = 20 m/s

Aceleration of the bus, -a = 8 m/s²

time of motion, t = 5 s

Now The final velocity of the bus is  

v = u + at

v = 20 + (-8 × 5)

v = 20 - 40

v = -20 m/s.
