How to find rapidly the coordinates of Q:
since Q is the center of gravity of the triangle ABC, so we have the following vector relationship
vecQA +vecQB +vecQC =<span>vec0
</span><span>vecQA=(x-3, y+2)
</span><span>vecQB=(x-1, y+5)
</span><span>vecQC=(x-7, y+5)
</span><span>vec0=(0, 0)
</span>
so, vecQA +vecQB +vecQC =<span>vec0 is equivalent to 

</span>x-3 +x-1+x-7 =0, and y+2+y+5+<span>y+5=0 so 3x-11=0 implies x=11/3
</span><span>and 3y+12=0 implies y=-12/3

finally the </span><span>the coordinates of point Q is (11/3, -4)</span><span>

Junnie walked for 2.5 hours at a distance of 3.2miles per hour. Maurice walked for 1.8 hours at a speed of 4.1 miles per hour.
GREYUIT [131]

We are given speed and time for Junnie and Maurice.

We will use speed distance formula here to find the distance covered by Junnie and Maurice.

The formula is given by:

speed= \frac{distance}{time}

distance = speed * time

Distance covered by Junnie:

We are given speed of Junnie as 3.2 miles per hour and time taken by her is 2.5 hours.

Plugging these values to find distance:

Distance = 3.2 * 2.5 = 8 miles

Distance covered by Maurice:

We are given speed of Maurice as 4.1 miles per hour and time taken by her is 1.8 hours.

Plugging these values to find distance:

Distance = 4.1 * 1.8 = 7.38 miles

Distance covered by Maurice is 7.38 miles whereas that covered by Junnie is 8 miles.

(A) So it is clear that Junnie walked farther.

Now let us find how much farther did Junnie walked.

We can find that by finding the difference between the two distances.

Difference = Distance covered by Junnie - distance covered by Maurice

Difference = 8- 7.38 = 0.62

(B) So Junnie walked 0.62 miles farther.

hoa [83]

Answer:

19.1

Step-by-step explanation:

27 is half of 54, so that means that the second triangle is 1/2 the size of the first, meaning all sides need to be divided by 2 in order to get the answers for each side
