Answer:

The midpoint is ( -1/2, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, add the x coordinates of the endpoint and divide by 2

( 1+-2)/2 = -1/2

To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, add the y coordinates of the endpoint and divide by 2

( 0+-4)/2 = -4/2=-2

The midpoint is ( -1/2, -2)

Solve for a: b − 2a = c

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

$a=-\frac{c-b}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for the variable $a$ , given that :

$b-2a=c$

We can first start start by subtracting $b$ from both sides of the equation:

$-2a=c-b$

Now, we can divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of $a$ , which would be $-2$ :

$a=\frac{c}{-2}-\frac{b}{-2}$

Applying the fraction rule $\frac{a}{c}\pm\frac{b}{c} =\frac{a\pm b}{c}$ :

$a=\frac{c-b}{-2}$

Then, apply the fraction rule $\frac{a}{-b} =-\frac{a}{b}$

$a=-\frac{c-b}{2}$

Use this equation to find dy/dx. 3y cos x = x2 + y2

Art [367]

Given: 3y cos x = x² + y²

Define $y' = \frac{dy}{dx}$

Then by implicit differentiation, obtain
3y' cos(x) - 3y sin(x) = 2x + 2y y'
y' [3 cos(x) - 2y] = 2x + 3y sinx)

Answer:
$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2x+3y \, sin(x)}{3cos(x)-2y}$

melomori [17]

Answer:

A. False

B. True

C. False

D. True

Step-by-step explanation:

Only three dimensional subspace for R3 is R3 itself. In a 3 d subspace there are 3 basis vectors which are all linearly independent vectors. Dimension of a vector is number of subspace in that vector. Finite set can generate infinite dimension vector space.
