Given the following points:
Point P: (-4, 3)
Point Q: (9, 14)
To be able to find the midpoint of the line segment, we will be using the following formula:
We get,
Therefore, the midpoint of the line segment is 5/2, 17/2.
its D
*ignore this ma boy its just so i can have the minimum characters to answer this question*******
Step-by-step explanation:
Imagine placing 10 apples in a row.
We have an extra 2 baricades that we can place between any 2 apples, so that a total of 3 groups will be formed.
This is the same as choosing 2 of the 12 items to be barricades.
Hence the answer is 12C2 = 66.
I think the answer is -1/2
Question 1. Midpoint
Answer: M(-2,4)
Explanation:
1) The coordinates of the midpoint, M (x,y) between two points (x₁,y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are:
x = (x₁ + x₂) / 2 and y = (y₁ + y₂) / 2
2) Replacing the coordinates of the given points P (-4, 1) and Q (0,7) you get:
x = (- 4 + 0) / 2 = - 2, and
y = (1 + 7) / 2 = 4
So, the answer is M (-2,4)
Question 2: The distance between the two midpoints is:
Answer: 7.21
Explanation:
1) Use the formula of distance, which is an application of Pythagora's theorem:
d² = (x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²
2) Substitute values:
d² = (0 - (-4))² + (7 - 1)² = 4² + 6² = 16 + 36 = 52 ⇒ d = √52 ≈ 7.21
