For a better understanding of the solution provided here please find the diagram attached.
Please note that in coordinate geometry, the coordinates of the midpoint of a line segment is always the average of the coordinates of the endpoints of that line segment.
Thus, if, for example, the end coordinates of a line segment are and
then the coordinates of the midpoint of this line segment will be the average of the coordinates of the two endpoints and thus, it will be:
Thus for our question the endpoints are and
and hence the midpoint will be:
Thus, Option C is the correct option.
Answer:
Please find a visual representation of the scenario generated with MS Excel
Step-by-step explanation:
The given data on how Kylo fills up the bathtub with water are;
The time it takes to fill the bathtub with 50 gallons of water = 15 minutes
The time it takes to drain 30 gallons from the bathtub = 5 minutes
The time it takes to add 5 gallons of hot water = 2 minutes
The time it takes for all the water to drain out = 4 minutes
The given scenario can be represented visually on the coordinate plane, as follows;
The y-axis represents the amount of water in the bathtub in gallons
The x-axis represents the time from the when Kylo begins to fill the bathtub
The coordinates of points in the visual representation of the given scenario are therefore;
At the start, the bathtub is empty;
y = 0, x = 0
Then we have;
Plotting the number of gallons and the cumulative time values on MS Excel gives a visual representation of the scenario
