If one endpoint of a line segment is (2, 8) and the midpoint is (-4, 7), what is the other endpoint? (8, -5)

( - 10, - 22 )

using the midpoint formula,

let the other endpoint have coordinates (x, y) then

\frac{1}{2} (2 + x ) = - 4 ( multiply through by 2 )

2 + x = - 8 ( subtract 2 from both sides ) then

x = -8 - 2 = - 10 ← value of x-coordinate

Similarly for y-coordinate

\frac{1}{2} (8 + y ) = - 7 ( multiply through by 2 )

8 + y = - 14 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

y = - 14 - 8 = - 22 ← y -coordinate

the other endpoint is ( - 10, - 22 )

All of the functions shown below are either exponential growth or decay functions.
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If an exponential function is in the form of y = a(b)ˣ,

a = Initial quantity

b = Growth factor

x = Duration

Condition for exponential growth → b > 1

Condition for exponential decay → 0 < b < 1

Now we ca apply this condition in the given functions,

1). y=3.2(1+0.45)^{2x}

   Here, (1 + 0.45) = 1.45 > 1

   Therefore, It's an exponential growth.

2). y=(0.85)^{3x}

    Here, (0.85) is between 0 and 1,

    Therefore, it's an exponential decay.

3). y = (1 - 0.03)ˣ + 4

    Here, (1 - 0.03) = 0.97

    And 0 < 0.97 < 1

    Therefore, It's an exponential decay.

4). y = 0.5(1.2)ˣ + 2

    Here, 1.2 > 1

    Therefore, it's an exponential growth.

The length of 2 sides of a triangle are 12 inches and 4 inches. Which is the third side?
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Let x = the third side

 

In a triangle, the sum of any 2 sides must be larger than the third side.

I believe this is called the triangle inequality theorem.

 

We can construct 3 inequalities to obtain the range of values for the third side.

 

  (Inequality #1)   12 + 4 > x

                                  16 > x

 

  (Inequality#2)    12 + x > 4

                                    x > -8   (we can discard this ... we know all sides will be positive)

 

  (Inequality #3)   4 + x > 12

                                   x > 8

 

So when we combine these together,  

 

   8 < x < 16

 

X (the third side) must be a number between 8 and 16. but not including 8 and 16
