Answer:
Midpoint is ( Average of x’s, Average of y’s )
1 = (x + 7)/2
2 = x + 7, x = - 5
and - 1 = (y + (-4))/2
so - 2 = y - 4 and y = 2
Pt B = (- 5, 2)

Answer:
There is no point of the form (-1, y) on the curve where the tangent is horizontal
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that when x = - 1. then dy/dx becomes:
dy/dx= (y+2) / (2y+1)
therefore, to request that the tangent is horizontal we ask for the y values that make dy/dx equal to ZERO:
0 = ( y + 2) / (2 y + 1)
And we obtain y = -2 as the answer.
But if we try the point (-1, -2) in the original equation, we find that it DOESN'T belong to the curve because it doesn't satisfy the equation as shown below:
(-1)^2 + (-2)^2 - (-1)*(-2) - 5 = 1 + 4 + 2 - 5 = 2 (instead of zero)
Then, we conclude that there is no horizontal tangent to the curve for x = -1.
Step-by-step explanation:
- a . write the formula for finding area that is area= L by W so to get w will area over length so 4731/83= 57
- perimeter=2( L+ W ) so substitute so that it looks like this 318= 2(L + 72 ) then open the bracket 318= (2L + 144) then move 144 to the other side so 318 - 144 = 2L then you get 174= 2L divide both sides by 2 and your length is 87
