ANSWER

D. (4,3)

EXPLANATION

Let

(x_1,y_1)=A(9,8)

and

(x_2,y_2)=B(-1,-2)

To find the midpoint, use the formula,

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

Substitutes the values to get,

( \frac{9 - 1}{2} , \frac{8 - 2}{2} )

Simplify

( \frac{8}{2} , \frac{6}{2} )

( 4, 3)

The correct choice is D.

Line t passes through points (10, 1) and (2, 6). Line u is perpendicular to t. What is the slope of line u?
diamong [38]

Let's find the slope for line t first.

We can use the given points 2,6 and 10,1 to find the slope using the slope formula.

\frac{y.2 - y.1}{x.2 - x.1} = m

1 - 6 / 10 - 2

-5/8

The slope is -5/8.

Because we know the slope of this line, we can find the slope of the next line instantly, as they are perpendicular.

When a slope is perpendicular to another, it is equal to the negative reciprocal.

Negative reciprocal of -5/8 = 8/5

<h3>The slope of line u is 8/5</h3>

DENIUS [597]
3 x 12 would equal 36, +1 would make it 37. Since there is no space in between 2 and the (, you multiply it. 37 x 3 = 111
So, Jeff should order 111 books

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

8 and -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be l and s.

We have equations:

l = 5s + 18

3l + 4s = 16

Solve for s by substituting l into the second equation:

3(5s + 18) + 4s = 16

15s + 54 + 4s = 16

19s = 16 - 54

19s = -38

s = -38/19

s = -2

Find the value of l:

l = 5(-2) + 18

l = -10 + 18

l = 8
