Show that the statement is true. If GH has endpoints G(−2, 1) and H(4, −1), then the midpoint M of GH lies on the line y = −x +

1.
The midpoint M is ( , ). The midpoint does not lie or lies on the line y = −x + 1 since its coordinates satisfy or do not satisfy the equation.

Midpoint = (x1 + x2) / 2, (y1 + y2)/2
(-2,1)....x1 = -2 and y1 = 1
(4,-1)...x2 = 4 and y2 = -1
time to sub
m = (-2 + 4) / 2 , (1 + (-1) / 2
m = (2/2), (0/2)
m = (1,0) <==

y = -x + 1.....(1,0)...x = 1 and y = 0
0 = -1 + 1
0 = 0 (correct)

so the midpoint  M (1,0) lies on the line since its coordinates satisfy the equation <===

Jeff is building a bookcase for his room and wants to be sure the shelves are parallel. He measures the angles below and knows t
katrin [286]

Answer:

∠2 and ∠4 are the supplementary angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Shelves of the bookcase are parallel and a transversal line is intersecting these points at two distinct points.

By the property,

Sum of two interior consecutive angles measure 180°.

From the figure attached,

∠2 and ∠4 are the interior consecutive angles.

Therefore, m∠2 + m∠4 = 180°

Which proves that shelves of the showcase are parallel.

Kim made soup which contains 75 total ounces of beans
True [87]

Answer:

15 ounces of red beans

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we know Kim's soup contains a total of 75 ounces of beans, including red beans (r) and black beans (b), so r + b = 75

Then we know that for each ounce of red beans, there are 4 ounces of black beans, 1b = 4r

Then we merge both equations by replacing b's value in the first equation by its equivalent (b = 4r), since we are looking for the count of red beans.

r + b = 75

r + 4r = 75

5 r = 75

r = 15

There are 15 ounces of red beans in Kim's soup, that looks a lot like the last chili I made :-)

Find the length of each leg. Leave an answer in simplest radical form.
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

x=8\sqrt{2} units

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle is an isosceles right triangle.

This implies that, the second leg is also x units.

We use the Pythagoras Theorem to obtain:

x^2+x^2=16^2

2x^2=256

Divide both sides by 2; to get

x^2=128

Take positive square root to get:

x=\sqrt{128}

x=8\sqrt{2}
