The answer is (-21, 13) for The second endpoint.

Let's start by calling the known endpoint L and the unknown K. We'll call the midpoint M. In order to find this, we must first note that to find a midpoint we need to take the average of the endpoints. To do this we add them together and then divide by 2. So, using that, we can write a formula and solve for each part of the k coordinates. We'll start with just x values.

(Kx + Lx)/2 = Mx

(Kx + 1)/2 = -10

Kx + 1 = -20

Kx = -21

And now we do the same thing for y values

(Ky + Ly)/2 = My

(Ky + 7)/2 = 10

Ky + 7 = 20

Ky = 13

This gives us the final point of (-21, 13)

if you roll a fair 6-sided die 9 times, what is the probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4?

Kay [80]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.857 = 85.7% probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4.

For each die, there are only two possible outcomes, either a 3 or a 4 is rolled, or it is not. The result of a roll is independent of any other roll, hence, the <em>binomial distribution</em> is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.

n is the number of trials.

p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

There are 9 rolls, hence $n = 9$ .

Of the six sides, 2 are 3 or 4, hence $p = \frac{2}{6} = 0.3333$

The desired probability is:

$P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)$

In which:

$P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)$

Then

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{9,0}.(0.3333)^{0}.(0.6667)^{9} = 0.026$

$P(X = 1) = C_{9,1}.(0.3333)^{1}.(0.6667)^{8} = 0.117$

Then:

$P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.026 + 0.117 = 0.143$

$P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.143 = 0.857$

0.857 = 85.7% probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4.

The maximum walking speed (in feet per second) of a large animal can be modeled by the equation S = sqrt(gL) where S = speed in

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

1. The domain of a sqrt(x) is x > 0. So, L > 0.
2. The range of a S(x) = sqrt(x) is S(x) > 0 for all valid x > 0.

The expression 0.00222 x 10^n is greater than 2 (and n is an integer). what is the smallest possible value for n

77julia77 [94]

The smallest value for n is -3
When you move the decimal point to the right, the exponent on the 10 will be negative
move the decimal point to the right 3 times and you get 2.22 x 10^-3
2.22 is greater than two

Describe the general properties of rotations. Include a discussion of the properties of rigid transformations ,and line segments

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

A rotation is a rigid transformation, sometimes called an isometric transformation, that moves every point of the pre-image through an angle of rotation about the center of rotation to create an image. Rotations preserve size, rotations of 360 map a figure to itself, and lines connecting the center of rotation to the pre-image and the corresponding point on the image have equal length.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here man this is right
