Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If Samantha's earnings continue to increase at the same rate, this means that her earning is increasing arithmetically.

If she earned $550 in the first day, we can say the first term is $550

If she earned $750 on the third day, we can say the third term is $750

For us to know by how much her money is increasing, we need to find the common difference d formed by the sequence

550, x , 750

T1 = 550

T2 = x

T3 = 750

Common difference d = T2-T1 = T3-T2

x - 550 = 750 - x = d

Let's calculate the second term first i.e x

Since x - 550 = 750 - x = d

x - 550 = 750 - x

Collect like terms

x+x = 750+550

2x = 1300

x = 1300/2

x = 650

d = T2-T1

d = x - T1

d = 650-550

d = 100

Hence her money keeps increasing by $100 each day

How do you multiply 12x12 step by step?
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

144

Step-by-step explanation:

 

 12

X12

------

 

If you are writing this problem out by hand, be sure that your numbers are lined up, like above.  This will help you in making sure that you solve each step of your problem properly.

 

First, start with the 12.  Multiply 12 by the "2" in the one's place, in the second number:

 

 12

X  2

-----

 

Begin by multiplying 2 X 2 first, in the "ones" column.

 

Do you have 2X2=4?  Great!  Put the 4 in the ones column, where your answer would go.

 

Next, multiply 2 times the 1 digit.  The 1 is actually a 10, because it is in the "tens" column.

 

2 X10=20

 

Place your 2 in the "tens" column--It should look like this...

 

 12

X  2

-----

 24

 

Since you are finished with the "ones" place, now you will work with the tens column.

 

put a zero under the 4 in 24.

 

then continue like this

 

 12

X12

-----

 24

120      because 12 X10=120

------

144      If you add 24 +120, you should have 144.

 

If you have a slightly different way of doing this problem, that's OK.  The point is to get the correct answer.

 

If you have a times table, you can check yourself.

 12 X12=144

Find the coordinates of the other endpoint of the​ segment, given its midpoint and one endpoint.​ (Hint: Let​ (x,y) be the unkno
spin [16.1K]
The other endpoint is (1, -17).

The midpoint formula is:

m=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

Using our midpoint and endpoint, we have:
(6, -11) = (\frac{11+x_2}{2}, \frac{-5+y_2}{2})
\\
\\6=\frac{11+x_2}{2} \text{ and } -11=\frac{-5+y_2}{2}


For the first equation (to find the x-coordinate) we will multiply both sides by 2:
6\times2=\frac{11+x_2}{2}\times 2
\\
\\12=11+x_2

Subtract 11 from both sides:
12 - 11 = 11+x₂ - 11
1 = x₂

For the second equation (the y-coordinate) we multiply both sides by 2:
-11\times2=\frac{-5+y_2}{2}\times 2
\\
\\-22=-5+y_2

Add 5 to both sides:
-22+5 = -5+y₂ + 5
-17 = y₂

This means that (x₂, y₂) is at (1, -17).
