Answer: $(-2,-\frac{1}{2} )$

Step-by-step explanation:

Add up both x's and y's and divide them by 2

$(X_m,Y_m)=(\frac{X_1+X_2}{2},\frac{Y_1+Y_2}{2})$

$(X_m,Y_m)=(\frac{2+(-6)}{2},\frac{-1+0}{2})$

$(X_m,Y_m)=(\frac{-4}{2},\frac{-1}{2})$

$(X_m,Y_m)=(-2,-\frac{1}{2} )$

THE ANSWER:

There would need to be at least 1,800 entries in order for them to meet their goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, we must write an equation that helps solve it. We know that for every entry (x), we gain 75 and lose 25. We can express this as the following.

75x - 25x

Then we can add the number of donations.

75x - 25x + 10,000

Then we can set it as greater than or equal to the goal number.

75x - 25x + 10,000 ≥ 100,000

Now we solve this using the order of operations.

75x - 25x + 10,000 ≥ 100,000 ----> Combine like terms

50x + 10,000 ≥ 100,000 ------> Subtract 10,000

50x ≥ 90,000 -----> Divide by 50

~~~~~~~~~x ≥ 1,800~~~~~

The value of a dirt bike decreases by 20% each year. If you purchased this dirt bike today for $500, to the nearest dollar how m

The value of the bike after a year becomes only 80% of the value a year ago. In this given, the initial amount $500 should be multiplied by 80% 5 times. The answer would be $163.84. Thus, after 5 years the dirt bike would only be $163.84.

Answer:

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies directly with x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 3 when x = 9, then

k = $\frac{y}{x}$ = $\frac{3}{9}$ = $\frac{1}{3}$ , thus
