If "a" and "b" are two values of x-coordinate, and "m" is the midpoint between them, it means the distance from one end to the midpoint is the same as the distance from the midpoint to the other end
... a-m = m-b
When we add m+b to this equation, we get
... a+b = 2m
Solving for m gives
... m = (a+b)/2
This applies to y-coordinates as well. So ...
... The midpoint between (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is ((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2)
_____
Jennifer had (x1, y1) = (-4, 10) and (x2, y2) = (-2, 6). So her calculation would be
... midpoint = ((-4-2)/2, (10+6)/2) = (-6/2, 16/2) = (-3, 8)
Brandon had (x1, y1) = (9, -4) and (x2, y2) = (-12, 8). So his calculation would be
... midpoint = ((9-12)/2, (-4+8)/2) = (-3/2, 4/2) = (-1.5, 2)
2:3:4 gives 9 equal parts.
1.20 divided by 9 is 0.133.
2 * 0.133 would be 0.266m
3 * 0.133 would be 0.399m
4 * 0.133 would be 0.533m
To check this calculate 0.533 + 0.399 + 0.266 would be 1.198m (close enough)

A system of linear equations is given as
There are many methods to solve them. We will use the method of reduction
The given system is

Multiplying the second equation by -3

Adding the resulting equations


The top and sides of the cylinder have an area of pr^2+2prh, but the pr^2 of the top is also removed from the cube which has an area of 6s^2.
A=6s^2+2prh
A=6*36+2p4*1
A=216+8p in^2
A≈241.13 in^2 (to nearest one-hundredth)
Note that I did not include the area of the cylinder that touches the cube...
You need to use the distance formula to find the radius of the circle.

The radius is 3.
The circumference is
