Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Mid-point = (x1+x2)/2 , (y1+y2)/2

= (-6-2)/2 , (-2-5)/2

= -8/2 , -7/2

= -4 , -7/2

The surface of an office desk has a perimeter of 20 feet and an area of 21 square feet. what are the dimensions of the desk?

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

3 feet by 7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 20 feet

area = 21 feet²

If the desk is a rectangle:

perimeter = 2l + 2w = 2 (l+w) = 20

2 (l+w) = 20 , divide both sides by 2

l+w = 10

area = l · w = 21

What numbers we know that have sum as 10 and their product as 21?

l + w = 10

l · w = 21

factors of 21 are 1,3,7

3+7 = 10

3 ·7 = 21

The dimensions of the desk could be 3 feet by 7 feet.

The area of a rectangle may be determined by using the formula A = lw, where "A" stands for area, "l" stands for the length of t

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The area is 15 cm^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Start with the given formula.

Step 2: Then replace l and w with the given measures.

Step 3: Then do the calculation.

Step 1: A = lw

Step 2: A = (3 cm) * (5 cm)

Step 3: A = 15 cm^2

Answer: The area is 15 cm^2.

A tower stand on a horizontal plane. P is the top and Q is the bottom of the tower. A and B are two points on this plane such th

pochemuha

Answer:

32√5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the right triangles PQA and PQB as well as the given right triangle QAB.

cot(PAQ) = 2/5 = QA/PQ

cot(PBQ) = 3/5 = QB/PQ

cot(PAQ) / cot(PBQ) = (2/5) / (3/5) = 2/3

cot(PAQ) / cot(PBQ) = (QA/PQ) / (QB/PQ) = QA / QB

QA / QB = 2/3

QA = (2/3) QB

QB = (3/2) QA

By the Pythagorean Theorem we have:

(QA)² + 32² = (QB)²

(QA)² + 32² = (3/2 QA)²

(QA)² + 1024 = (9/4) (QA)²

(5/4) (QA)² = 1024

(QA)² = (4/5)1024 = 4096/5

QA = 64/√5

Solve for PQ.

cot(PAQ) = QA/PQ

PQ = QA / cot(PAQ)

PQ = (64/√5) / (2/5) = 32√5

The height of the tower is 32√5.

What is the product of 3.6 x 4.2<br><br> How did you find it.

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

15.12

Step-by-step explanation:

3.6 x 4.2

first aline the decmials like you would regularly do to multiply.

Then multiply 2 x 6=12 and then 2 x 3=6 and put them down were you would already do noramly multiplying.

and then muliply 4x6=24 and 4x3=12 and do the same thing as you would do normaly and then add 72 and 144 to get 1512 and then count your decmail placing. which is 2 placeing in total which makes 1512 into 15.12

and now you done!

Example of how it should look...

3 . 6

× 4 . 2

+ 7 . 2

+ 1 4 4

= 1 5 1 2

the slope of a line passing through h (-2, 5) is -3/4. Which ordered pair represents a point on this line?

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope of the given points with the point (- 2, 5 )

If the slope is - $\frac{3}{4}$ then the point is on the line

Calculate slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, - 1)

m = $\frac{-1-5}{6+2}$ = $\frac{-6}{8}$ = - $\frac{3}{4}$ ← point (6, - 1) is on the line

Repeat with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 5 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 8)

m = $\frac{8-5}{2+2}$ = $\frac{3}{4}$ ← point (2, 8) is not on the line

Repeat with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 5, 1)

m = $\frac{1-5}{-5+2}$ = $\frac{-4}{-3}$ = $\frac{4}{3}$ ← point (- 5, 1) is not on the line

Repeat with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 1)

m = $\frac{1-5}{1+2}$ = - $\frac{4}{3}$ ← point (1, 1) is not on the line

Thus the point on the line is (6, - 1 ) → A
