Answer:

The midpoint of the x-intercepts of the function is (0, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that since the function comes in factor form, we know that its roots (which are actually the intercepts the function has with the x-axis) are: x = 4 and x = -4 (the x-values for which the function renders zero).

These two points are equidistant from the origin of coordinates (0, 0), and therefore the midpoint of these x-intercepts is (0, 0).

Find the midpoint of the line segment whose endpoints are (3, 10) and (7, 8).

Stels [109]

Answer:

Option 2 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinates of lines segment (3, 10) and (7, 8). we have to find the mid-point of given line segment.

Mid-point formula states that if $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ are the coordinates of end points of line segment then the coordinates of mid-point are

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

∴ Coordinates of mid-point of line segment joining the points (3, 10) and (7, 8) are

$(\frac{3+7}{2},\frac{10+8}{2})=(\frac{10}{2},\frac{18}{2})=(5,9)$

Hence, option 2 is correct.

Question 2 Multiple Choice Worth 5 points)

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

√20 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see attached photo for diagram.

The other leg of the triangle is x as shown in the attached photo.

Using the pythagoras theory, we can obtain the the value of x as follow:

x² = 4² + 2²

x² = 16 + 4

x² = 20

Take the square root of both side.

x = √20 units

Therefore, the value of the other leg x of the triangle is √20 units

Please Help Me!! Its for tomorrow and i rlly need help pls pls pls pls

Answer:

perimeter = 6x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the triangle is the distance around the triangle.

We need to apply our ability to convert word problems in to mathematical expressions.

We were told that the bottom of the triangle is x units.

From the diagram perimeter 4x + 12 + x + 3 + x = 6x + 15

Four times the length of the bottom will be 4x .

12 more than 4 times the bottom will be 4x + 12.

Hence another side of the triangle is 4x + 12.

Finally we were told that the last side is 3 more than the bottom, that will be x + 3.
