First you need to distribute. when you do this you get (8v+8w)-(7v+14w) then you get like terms together, but don't forget that everything in (7v+14w) is negative. when you group like terms together you get (8v-7v)+(8w-14w) simplify and you get v-6w

List the independent and dependent variables for each situation:

natulia [17]

Part (a)

Independent variable = age
Dependent variable = height

"depends on age" indicates that age is independent.

-----------------------------------
Part (b)

Independent variable = amount of sleep
Dependent variable = mood

The key word is "determines". The stuff before this word is the independent variable which affects the dependent variable.
-----------------------------------
Part (c)

Independent variable = time water has been running
dependent variable = amount of water in the tub

Time is usually the independent variable
-----------------------------------
Part (d)

Independent variable = speed
dependent variable = distance from home

-----------------------------------
Part (e)

Independent variable = amount of homework done
dependent variable = speed

This seems like an odd pairing of homework and speed. Could there be a typo? I noticed that part (f) is very similar

-----------------------------------
Part (f)

Independent variable = amount of hw that is assigned
dependent variable = amount of homework done

Like with part (a), the stuff before "depends" is the dependent variable

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$Midpoint = \left(\frac{x_2+x_1}{2},\:\:\frac{y_2+y_1}{2}\right)\\\\\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(2,\:0\right),\:\\\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(8,\:8\right)\\\\=\left(\frac{8+2}{2},\:\frac{8+0}{2}\right)\\\\=(\frac{10}{2} , \frac{8}{2} )\\\\Simplify\\\\(5,4)$
