If p is the midpoint of line xy, xp=11-6b and py=6-b, find xp

Mathematics

Since p is the midpoint then xp and pay must equal each other
So, 11-6b=6-b
Solve for b
11-6b=6-b
-6 -6
5-6b=-b
+6b +6b
5=5b
b=1

xp=11-6(1)
xp=5

John leaves his home. He travels 5 blocks south and three blocks west. As the crow flies, how far is John from his home?
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

5.83 blocks away from his home

Step-by-step explanation:

If he travels 5 blocks south and 3 blocks west, the distance from his house considered along with the distances travelled gives a right angled triangle whose opposite side and adjacent sides are the distances travelled north and west.

The distance from his house after moving 3 blocks west is the hypotenuse side. As such, the distance may be computed using Pythagoras' theorem. Let the distance from his house be G

G^2 = 5^2 + 3^2

G^2 = 25 + 9

= 34

G = √34

=5.83

John is 5.83 blocks away from his home

A triangle with sides measuring 300, 400 and 700 because 300+400+700=1400 which is higher than the first triangle 300+400+500=1200

In circle O, RT and SU are diameters.
nataly862011 [7]

In circle O, RT and SU are diameters. mArc R V = mArc V U = 64°. Thus, option C is correct.

Given that:

mArc R V = mArc V U,

Angle S O R = 13 x degrees

Angle T O U = 15 x - 8 degrees

<h3>How to calculate the angle TOU ?</h3>

∠SOR = ∠TOU  (Vertically opposite angles are equal).

Therefore:

13 x = 15x - 8

Subtracting 13x from both sides

13x - 13x = 15x - 8 - 13x

0 = 15x - 13x - 8

2x - 8 = 0

Adding 8 to both sides:

2x - 8 + 8 = 0 + 8

2x = 8

2x/2 = 8/2  

x = 4

∠SOR = 13x

= 13(4)

= 52°

∠TOU = 15x - 8

= 15(4) - 8

= 60 - 8

= 52°

Let a = mArc R V = mArc V U

Therefore:

mArc R V + mArc V U + ∠TOU = 180 (sum of angles on a straight line)

Substituting:

a + a + 52 = 180

2a = 180-52

2a = 128

a = 128/2

a= 64°

mArc R V = mArc V U = 64°

In circle O, RT and SU are diameters. mArc R V = mArc V U = 64°. Thus, option C is correct.
