ALTITUDE
the altitude is the height of the traignel

if we graph the points, we get some lopsided triangle
so we know the altitude is peerpendicular to the base
so find the line that is perpendicular to the line tha passes through A and C

so first fid the line that passes through (-4,-2) and (18,-8)
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope=(-8-(-2))/(18-(-4))=(-8+2)/(18+4)=-6/22
perpendicular lines have slopes the multipy to -1
-6/22 times what=-1
times both sides by -22/6
wat=22/6
that is the slope of the line that is the altitude

we have to use point slope form
the equation of a line that passes through (x1,y1) and has sloe of m is
y-y1=m(x-x1)
so passes through B (4,4) and has slope of 22/6
y-4=22/6(x-4)
y-4=22/6x-44/3
y=(22/6)x-32/3
that is the altitude






MEDIAN
the media is the line joining the midpoint of one side to the vertex of the other
so we need to find the line that passes through the midpoint of AB and through the point C
midpoint of (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
((x1+x2)/2,(y1+y2)/2)
so
midopint of (-4,-2) and (4,4) is
((-4+4)/2,(-2+4)/2)=(0/2,2/2)=(0,1)

so we just find the line that passes through (0,1) and (18,-8)
slope iis (-8-1)/(18-0)=-9/18=-1/2
a point is (0,1) and sloe si -1/2
y-1=-1/2(x-0)
y-1=1/2x
y=(1/2)x+1








ALTITUDE
y=(-6/22)x

MEDIAN:
y=(1/2)x+1

What is 64mi/h= ft/s
vladimir1956 [14]
64 miles per hour = x feet per second

Convert your units:
1 mile = 5280 feet
1 hour = 3600 seconds

64 miles/hour = 64(5280feet/3600seconds)
= 33792 feet / 3600 seconds = 9.386 feet / second

Therefore, 64 mi/h = 9.39 ft/s.

5. There are 8 sections of seats in an auditorium. Each section contains at least 150 seats but not more than 200 seats. Which o
zaharov [31]

Answer:

1300

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of sections = 8

Number of seats per section, x ;

150 ≤ x ≤ 200

The possible Number of seats in the auditorium :

Number of seats per section * number of sections

150 * 8 ≤ x ≤ 200 * 8

1200 ≤ x ≤ 1600

The possible Number of seats will lie within 1200 and 1600

From the options, only 1300 lie within this range

What’s the inverse of f(x) = x + 2 ?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x + 2.....change f(x) to y

y = x + 2....now switch x and y and solve for y

x = y + 2

x - 2 = y....change y to f-1(x)...represents an inverse

f-1(x) = x - 2 <== ur inverse

What is the probability of rolling a 5 or not rolling a 5 using a regular 6-sided number cube?
Ne4ueva [31]
There are 6 different sides you can land on with a dice. So the probability of rolling any one side is 1/6. The probability of NOT rolling a 5 is the same thing as rolling anything except a 5. So that probability will be 5/6.
